Special attention is given to designing activities that integrate multiple language skills—reading, writing, speaking, and listening—within a single lesson. Teachers learn to sequence activities logically, building from controlled practice to freer communication, ensuring appropriate scaffolding throughout the learning process.
Effective lesson planning is about finding the perfect balance between structure and flexibility. Your plan provides the roadmap, but the needs of your students determine the journey.
