LESSON DESCRIPTION
Greetings & Introductions is a 30–45 minute ESL lesson designed for beginner learners (A0–A1) who are taking their first steps in conversational English. This practical, interactive lesson helps students build confidence by mastering everyday greetings and polite small talk through real-life dialogues and roleplay.
LEVEL: A0 – A1
LESSON TIME: 30 – 45 MIN
Why Choose This Lesson?
- Simple & Visual Warm-Up
Begin with a time-of-day matching activity, helping students link common greetings (e.g., Good morning, Good afternoon, Good evening) to the correct context. This creates a friendly atmosphere and activates prior knowledge. - Real-Life Vocabulary in Action
Students match greetings like Nice to meet you, What’s up?, and Long time no see! with their intended use. These essential expressions are then reinforced through listening and gap-fill dialogue activities. - Reading & Understanding Dialogue
Students read and analyze short conversations to identify who is meeting for the first time, who are old friends, and what phrases are used in each situation. This builds reading comprehension in a meaningful context. - Roleplay and Fluency Practice
Pairs read, personalize, and perform dialogues—first with guided support, then more creatively—building fluency, pronunciation, and confidence in speaking. - Optional Writing & Discussion Tasks
Extend the lesson with optional creative writing and small group discussion, allowing students to personalize their learning and reflect on greetings in their culture.
Ideal For:
- Teachers introducing speaking practice to complete beginners
- ESL classrooms focused on practical everyday communication
- Courses that want to connect real-world interactions with beginner-level English
