This is a vocabulary lesson suitable for mixed ability Beginner Adult ESL/EAL learners. It can be used as a stand alone lesson at the beginning of a term or course (Back to School) or as part of an in depth lesson on Goal Setting. This resource works well as a supplement to Goal Setting for Adult ESL Beginner students.

The activities are based around a set of 19 words on the topic of goals and study.

As beginner classes tend to be multi level, there are many opportunities to differentiate or adapt this lesson to suit the level of your students. Most of this resource is not suited to complete beginners without reliance on a dictionary.

  • Flash cards – 3 sets (1 with words and 1 without and 1 set with a word bank)
  • 5 varied and relevant activities
  • Differentiated activities for mixed ability classes
  • Answers to activities (unless open ended)

Like all my resources, this lesson is designed specifically for adults. It incorporates language that adults will need to use and situations that are relevant to adult learners.

Goal Setting - Adult ESL Beginners - Back to School - Bundle

This goal setting bundle is designed for multi level Adult ESL Beginners classes It will enable students to learn the language for talking about goals and language learning needs and empower them to set their own goals and talk about them with confidence. The vocabulary lesson is best done first (or perhaps integrated into the goal setting lesson) to pre teach some of the vocabulary needed for the other 2 resources. The lessons can be used in several ways: •with total beginners – supported by a lot of scaffolding by the teacher •at the beginning of the year/course (Back to School) which will also help you learn more about your students •as a review lesson for ongoing students using the extension activities There is plenty of opportunity to differentiate learning according to your students’ levels and needs. I have provided alternatives for some of the activities and suggested ways to adapt for others. As in all my lessons, the language is presented in a context that is relevant to adult students with language that they will be able to use in their everyday lives. In these lessons the context is long term and short term goals and learning needs with supporting vocabulary. For more detailed inclusions please refer to the individual products The lessons will work as a Back to School activity or any other time. It will help you find out more about your students and their needs and expectations. Thank you for visiting my store.
