EFL - ESL Lesson plans, activities and games | Beginner to advanced
Welcome to our collection of ESL lesson plans. At the moment we cover seven levels, ranging from beginner (A1) to advanced (C1). Each language level section below contains a series of lesson plans on grammar and functional language. These lessons can be used in low-resource classrooms and require little to no preparation time. Each one contains a warm-up activity with board work and several ideas for classroom activities and games.
