In this lesson, students explore how to talk about life experiences, recent actions, and unfinished time periods using the Present Perfect. Through interactive tasks, they practise all four language skills—listening, reading, speaking, and writing.

The lesson begins with a personal lead-in where students read example sentences and decide whether they are true for them. Students then do a listening task, matching characters with pictures and completing Present Perfect sentences from the audio. A short reading follows, where students study three mini-stories and analyse how the Present Perfect is used for experience, results, unfinished time periods, and with just/already/yet.

Students then move on to guided grammar practice, building positive, negative, and question forms of the Present Perfect. Through pair-work speaking activities, challenge rounds, and personalised prompts, students create their own sentences and ask classmate questions. Finally, they complete a short writing task describing what they have done this month, using the structures they have learned.

By the end of the lesson, students will confidently use the Present Perfect in meaningful, real-life contexts.
