Teacher Note
Each lesson follows one consistent sequence: three expression chunks with form, meaning, model, and five natural elicitation questions; two question chunks with one sample question and five student-created questions; then contextualized phrasal verbs and ten relaxed conversation questions.
The form boxes make the grammar visible without turning the lesson into a grammar lecture. Meanings are short and functional. The questions create a communicative need for the target structure, while the final themed section shifts toward freer conversation.
