Lesson Overview

What would you do if you suddenly became a millionaire? In this lesson, students will learn about the second conditional. This grammar rule is used to talk about hypothetical or unlikely situations in the present or future. Students will talk and learn about real-life examples and imaginative scenarios. The lesson includes fun exercises and engaging discussions to help learners confidently use the Second Conditional in both speaking and writing. It is perfect for adult and teenage learners at the B1 level.


Lesson Objectives



  • Grammar: Students will learn and practice the second conditional. They will make sentences using this grammar and learn when to use it to talk about unreal or imaginary situations.




  • Speaking: Students will talk about dreams, imaginary situations, and choices. They will use new words and the second conditional to give their answers.




  • Vocabulary: Students will learn and use words like "hypothetical," "unlikely," and "possible outcome." They will use these words in fun activities to help them understand and remember them.




  • Homework: Students will do exercises to practice the Second Conditional. First, they will read some grammar rules and mark them as true or false. If a rule is false, they will correct it. Next, they will read example sentences and decide which ones are correct and fix the ones with mistakes. Finally, they will choose three activities they would like to do and write second conditional sentences to explain their choices. These tasks will help students remember the grammar and use it when talking about imaginary situations.
