Title: Advanced Conditional Forms and Idioms

Level: C1

Duration: 30 minutes

Objective: By the end of the lesson, students will be able to use advanced conditional forms (mixed conditional, inversion, etc.) accurately and incorporate idioms, phrases, words, and phrasal verbs related to success, decision-making, and inspiration in their speaking.

Materials: - Whiteboard or flipchart - Markers - Handout with advanced conditional forms and idioms (optional) - Video: “The Power of Decision Making” (link provided below)

Warm-up (5 minutes): 1. Greet the students and engage in a brief conversation about decision-making and success. 2. Introduce the idioms, phrases, words, and phrasal verbs related to success, decision-making, and inspiration. Write them on the board and explain their meanings briefly. - Over the hill - Go far - Reach the peak - Go downhill - At a crossroads - Hard to swallow - Regurgitate - Food for thought - Half-baked - Flash of inspiration - Dim - Construct a theory - Support a theory - Fall down - Make a killing - Join forces

Presentation (10 minutes): 1. Introduce the concept of advanced conditional forms, focusing on mixed conditionals and inversion. Provide examples on the board and explain their structures and usage. - Mixed conditional: If + past simple, would + present perfect Example: If I had studied harder, I would have passed the exam. - Inversion: Had + subject + past participle, would + base verb Example: Had I known about the event, I would have attended.

Practice (10 minutes): 1. Divide the students into pairs or small groups. 2. Provide each group with a set of scenario cards. Each card should contain a situation where the students need to use advanced conditional forms and incorporate at least one idiom, phrase, word, or phrasal verb from the list. 3. Instruct the students to discuss the scenarios using the target language and idioms. Encourage them to support their opinions and decisions with reasons and examples. 4. Monitor the groups and provide assistance as needed.

Production (5 minutes): 1. Bring the class back together and ask each group to share one scenario and their discussion with the rest of the class. 2. Encourage the students to use the target language and idioms while presenting their scenarios. 3. Provide feedback and correct any errors or inaccuracies.

Wrap-up (5 minutes): 1. Summarize the key points covered in the lesson, including the advanced conditional forms and idioms. 2. Encourage the students to continue practicing the target language and idioms in their daily conversations. 3. Share the link to the video “The Power of Decision Making” and encourage the students to watch it as additional practice.
