The island with no roads: Present Perfect Progressive in action
📘 Present Perfect Progressive
🏝 Remote Island
🌍 Community Life
VOCABULARY AND CONTEXT
Students learn vocabulary related to isolated communities and island life (remote island, residents, community life, nature reserve, bicycle path, carry supplies). Through matching, listening, and speaking tasks, they practise using these words in context.
READING AND LISTENING
Learners watch a video about La Digue island and answer comprehension questions. They read articles about life without cars and unique island communities, complete matching, gap-fill, and multiple-choice tasks, and reflect on how isolation shapes daily routines.
GRAMMAR PRACTICE
The lesson introduces the Present Perfect Progressive (Continuous) for describing actions that started in the past and continue into the present (e.g. have been living, has been working). Students practise through sentence completion, transformations, and communicative tasks, linking grammar directly to real-life contexts.
HOMEWORK AND REVISION
Students review the new vocabulary and practise using the Present Perfect Progressive in sentences and short writing tasks about island life. Homework activities include fill-in-the-blank exercises, picture-based tasks, and sentence building, reinforcing both grammar and context.
