Unit 10 of Ticket to English closes the 1st Bac year with Travel & Holiday — a naturally engaging final topic, paired with future forms: “will” versus “going to.” Below are all 9 free, ready-to-teach lesson plans covering the full unit.
All nine are free to download, aligned with the 1st Bac Standards-Based Approach.
What’s Included
Lesson 1: Starting Up — Travel Preferences & Benefits
A warm-up lesson introducing the unit’s theme through students’ own real travel preferences.
Lesson 2: Reading — “Travelling… The Best Education!” (Dialogue)
A dialogue-based reading passage arguing for travel’s genuine educational value.
Lesson 3: Vocabulary — Travel Activities, Phrasal Verbs & Journeys
The vocabulary bank for discussing travel, including travel-specific phrasal verbs.
Lesson 4: Listening — Travel Nightmares & Problems
Listening practice built around the genuinely relatable mishaps that happen while traveling.
Lesson 5: Functions — Expressing Surprise & Making Promises
Two practical communication skills, both naturally suited to travel stories and plans.
Lesson 6: Grammar — Future Forms: Will vs. Going To
A focused lesson clarifying when to use “will” versus “going to” — a distinction that matters for both accuracy and natural-sounding English.
Lesson 7: Writing — Descriptive Personal Letter About Hometown
A writing task giving students a genuine, personal reason to describe a real place in detail.
Lesson 8: Learning to Learn — The M.U.R.D.E.R. Study System
A memorable study skills lesson introducing a structured approach to studying, a fitting note to end the year’s study-skills threads on.
Lesson 9: Culture & Fun / Project Work — UK Travel Habits & Good Citizenship
A closing lesson comparing UK travel culture alongside a reflection on good citizenship, ending the year on a thoughtful note.
A fitting close to the 1st Bac year
Ending on future forms and a genuinely personal writing task about home gives Unit 10 a natural sense of closure — practical grammar paired with reflection, right before students move into 2nd Bac.
How to Use These in Class
Use real travel plans for “will” vs. “going to”
Asking students about a genuine upcoming trip or holiday (even a small one) gives Lesson 6’s grammar real stakes — “going to” for already-decided plans, “will” for spontaneous decisions made while discussing them.
Let travel nightmares set up expressing surprise
Lesson 4’s travel mishaps and Lesson 5’s surprise language pair naturally — react to a listening mishap (“I can’t believe that happened!”) before moving to more structured practice.
Make the hometown letter genuinely personal
Lesson 7 lands better when students write about their actual hometown rather than an invented place — real, specific detail is easier to generate than a description of somewhere unfamiliar.
