A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Use the single learner page in pairs. Personal or imagined answers can vary; there is no fixed answer key.

  1. Read the walking-versus-bus model and identify why this week is different.
  2. Pair usual clothing, travel or reading habits with what is happening now.
  3. Imagine staying with a friend for a week and compare meals, travel and free time.

Support and extension

Offer usually/today sentence pairs. Extend with Why this week?; do not choose a tense from a time word alone without considering meaning.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
