ESL Grammar Lessons at www.esl-lab.com For many years, my Web site has been focused on helping students improve their listening, vocabulary, speaking, writing, and thinking skills through a variety of exercises and activities. Now, I am developing grammar activities that can help reinforce and recycle all of the other language skills in a unified manner around common topics. In other words, the vocabulary and language found in each listening conversation is used and recycled in the grammar exercises leading to better understanding, use, and retention. Furthermore, quality language activities shouldn't just test something; they should teach and help students make connections between what they are learning in the classroom and in real life. Therefore, I try to make the explanations simple and easy to understand. Here are some examples: Here is a list of future grammar lessons that may be developed over time.

Subject and Object Questions - Lesson Plans for ESL Asking direct questions is usually one of the more difficult tasks for learners of English.

The following lower-intermediate to intermediate lesson focuses on helping students learn to recognize and employ both types of direct questions. Subject and Object Questions Lesson Plan Aim: Asking direct subject questions, recognizing the difference between subject and object questions Activity: Jumbled questions followed by question pair work employing both subject and object questions with "who", "what" and "which" Level: Lower-intermediate to intermediate Outline: Activate student knowledge of asking questions by having students ask each other questions in class.If necessary, quickly go over standard question structure (?
