PPP LESSON PLAN

SUBJECT/UNIT: ENGLISH/GRAMMAR TARGET LANGUAGE: PRESENT PERFECT

Level: Elementary- Pre-intermediate

Time: 50 minutes

Teaching Aids

Iconic pictures showing different countries…UK, Italy, France, America.

Exercise worksheet (converting Past Simple to Present Perfect)

White board and pens.

Key: TTT: Teacher Talking Time STT: Student Talk Time

Warm up/Lead-in

Start the lesson by showing some pictures of different places, for example, the UK, Italy, France,
Ask the students if they know what these places are. Put the picture on the board and write under
it. Ask the students if they have ever been to these places before. Get the student to name some
other places or countries they have been to, write them on the board. Ask what they liked about
these places, what they did, what they saw. Write these down to use later on in the lesson.(5
minutes)

Encourage them to get involved in the lesson, show interest and getting some STT. (

TTT 50% / STT 50%

Presentation

Talk about one of the places, “I have been to Italy”. To help explain the meaning of the tense draw
a timeline on the board, for example, (past)______(now)_________(future). Using the timeline,
show that the action happened sometime in the past. Explain that no indication is given to when it
happened and therefore we use the present perfect.

Get students to mark on the timeline to check they understand what is being taught.

Next, change the statement slightly “I went to Italy last year”. Explain that by adding “last year” to
the sentence it indicates a time in the past when it happened and therefore becomes a past simple
statement.

Drill in the meaning that the perfect present is used when there is no time/date indication. Get
students to say out the sentence. (time)

TTT 80% / STT 20%

Practice
Give the students a worksheet that has 6 past simple statements on it. Explain the activity that
they must convert these sentences to the present perfect. To make sure the students understand
ask them as a class to do the first one. For example: “ I saw the colosseum when I was in Italy last
year” (past simple) becomes “ I have seen the colosseum in Italy” (5 minutes)

Next go around class and getting the students talking about there past experience again, this time
using the present perfect tense. Ask, “ Where have you been?” student asnwers “I have been to
London” Go through this I few times drilling the target language. Alternate the questions slightly
by asking, “Where has (student name) been?” He/She/Name has been to spain” (10 minutes).

TTT 40% / STT 60%

Production

Using the list of places given at the start of the lesson, give out a place to each student (not their
own experience). They must then stand up in front of the class and give three statements about
that place without giving the name, all using the present perfect. For example: a student may say,
“ I have eaten pizza” I have been on a Gondola Ride” “I have visited Saint Mark´s square”. The rest
of the class will have to guess where they have been; In this case the response would be “ have
you been to Venice?” Yes”. Whoever is first to guess correct is next to go.

Finish the lesson by giving the students feedback on the activity, explain any mistakes. ( 15
minutes)

TTT 10% / STT 90%

Homework

Students must write down and be ready to presnt/discuss with the class experience they have had,
this time focusing on their interest out of school. Each student will present this during the next
lesson.
