Unit 2 of Ticket to English covers Society — a genuinely meaningful topic touching on real social issues, paired with two grammar points students consistently need reinforcement on: articles and “used 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 — Social Groups Needing Care

A warm-up lesson introducing the unit’s theme through the real social groups this topic concerns.

Lesson 2: Reading — Homeless Children Find Shelter in “BAYTI”

A reading passage built around a real Moroccan organization, giving the topic genuine local relevance.

Lesson 3: Vocabulary — Society & Social Problems Lexis

The vocabulary bank students need to discuss social issues thoughtfully in English.

Lesson 4: Listening — Who Is Responsible for Society’s Problems?

Listening practice built around a genuinely debatable question, setting up real discussion.

Lesson 5: Functions — Complaining Politely

A practical communication skill — how to raise a concern without being rude — directly tested in the exam’s language section.

Lesson 6: Grammar — Articles (a, an, the)

A focused lesson on article use, a small but persistently tricky area for students at this level.

Lesson 7: Grammar — “Used To” for Past Habits

A second grammar point, teaching students to describe habits and states that are no longer true.

Lesson 8: Writing — Contrasting Past & Present

A writing task that puts “used to” to direct, purposeful use, framed around genuine social change.

Lesson 9: Learning to Learn / Culture & Fun — Word Formation & Morocco’s Image

A closing lesson combining a useful language-learning skill with a reflection on Morocco’s international image.

Two grammar points, one clear connection

Articles and “used to” aren’t directly related grammatically, but this unit’s writing task (contrasting past and present) gives “used to” specifically a genuine, non-arbitrary reason to appear — worth pointing out to students explicitly.

How to Use These in Class

Let the BAYTI reading anchor the whole unit

Since Lesson 2’s reading is built around a real Moroccan organization, referring back to it during the vocabulary, listening, and writing lessons keeps the unit’s theme concrete rather than abstract.

Teach polite complaining with real, low-stakes scenarios

Lesson 5 lands best with everyday complaint scenarios (a wrong order, a noisy neighbor) before moving to anything related to the unit’s heavier social themes — it keeps the function itself easy to practice.

For Lesson 7, ask students to complete sentences like “Morocco used to…, but now…” — this format makes the grammar concrete and ties directly into Lesson 8’s writing task.
