Asking Harvard students if they ever sleep (A2, present simple and present continuous)

Who among you loves to sleep in or just lie in a comfortable bed and rest, relax? How much time do you usually spend sleeping? And how much time do you need to recover well and have enough energy for the whole day?

It is believed that during student years, sleep time is very limited. But is it really so? You will find out the answer to this question from our new lesson plan ‘Asking Harvard Students If They Ever Sleep’, which is perfect for all students of level A2+/B1, as this topic will be relevant and interesting for everyone.

The main goal of this lesson is grammar on the topic of Present Simple and Present Continuous. Your students will have many practical and creative tasks that will help them remember these grammar topics even better. Additionally, practice listening skills.

On slide 6, you can check what students remember about these tenses, and then move on to a more detailed study.

After the conversational practice on slide 13, you can additionally ask students to tell about their lifestyle similar to what they told about other characters or ask them to prepare this story for homework.

Sleep tight and enjoy your lessons!
