Unit 4 of Ticket to English covers Environment & Ecology — a genuinely urgent topic, paired with prepositions of time, place, and movement, plus the “too/enough” structure. 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 — Waste & Environmental Degradation
A warm-up lesson introducing the unit’s theme through real, visible environmental problems.
Lesson 2: Reading — Waste! Waste Everywhere!
A reading passage confronting the scale of waste as a genuine global and local issue.
Lesson 3: Vocabulary — Environment & Waste Lexis
The vocabulary bank students need to discuss environmental issues with real precision.
Lesson 4: Listening — The Effect of Pollution on Human Health
Listening practice connecting environmental issues directly to genuine health consequences.
Lesson 5: Functions — Making & Responding to Suggestions
A practical communication skill that pairs naturally with a topic that invites real solutions.
Lesson 6: Grammar — Prepositions of Time, Place & Movement
A comprehensive grammar lesson covering three preposition categories students consistently find tricky.
Lesson 7: Grammar — Too & Enough
A focused lesson on two structures students frequently confuse despite their very different meanings.
Lesson 8: Writing — Opinion Paragraph: Solar vs. Nuclear Energy
A genuinely substantial writing task asking students to take and defend a real position.
Lesson 9: Culture & Fun — Greenpeace & Environment Anagrams
A closing lesson introducing a real environmental organization alongside a lighter vocabulary game.
A writing task with a real debate built in
Unlike more descriptive writing tasks in other units, Lesson 8 asks students to genuinely argue a position — solar or nuclear — giving Lesson 5’s suggestion-making language direct, real use.
How to Use These in Class
Contrast “too” and “enough” with paired examples
Write one sentence with “too” and one with “enough” about the same situation side by side (“The water is too polluted to drink” vs. “The water isn’t clean enough to drink”) — direct contrast makes the difference in meaning click faster than separate rule explanations.
Let suggestions lead into the opinion paragraph
Teaching Lesson 5’s suggestion-making language shortly before Lesson 8’s writing task gives students ready phrases for proposing solutions within their argument, not just stating a position.
Use real prepositions of movement with the pollution topic
Sentences like “pollution spreads through the water” or “waste travels into the sea” give Lesson 6’s prepositions of movement genuine environmental context rather than generic examples.
