Unit 9 of Ticket to English covers Human Rights — a genuinely significant topic, paired with two demanding grammar points: reported speech and conditional type 2 for imaginary situations. 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 — Defining Human Rights & Slogans
A warm-up lesson introducing the unit’s theme through real slogans and core concepts.
Lesson 2: Reading — The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
A reading passage built around a genuinely significant real-world document.
Lesson 3: Vocabulary — Human Rights Lexis & Rights of the Child
The vocabulary bank for discussing human rights, with specific attention to children’s rights.
Lesson 4: Listening — Song: “We Are The World”
Listening practice built around a genuinely well-known song connected to the unit’s theme.
Lesson 5: Functions — Expressing Wishes & Hopes
A practical communication skill, naturally suited to a topic about how the world could be better.
Lesson 6: Grammar — Reported Speech (Statements)
A full lesson on reported speech, essential for relaying what someone else said — a genuinely demanding structure at this level.
Lesson 7: Grammar — Conditional Type 2 (Imaginary Situations)
A second grammar point, covering hypothetical, unlikely, or imaginary situations.
Lesson 8: Writing — Formal Letter to a Human Rights Association
A structured writing task introducing formal letter conventions in a genuinely meaningful context.
Lesson 9: Learning to Learn / Culture & Fun — Vocab Strategies, Amnesty International & Funny Signs
A closing lesson combining vocabulary strategy with a real human rights organization and a lighter activity.
Two demanding grammar points, one topic that justifies them
Reported speech and conditional type 2 are both genuinely challenging structures — pairing them with a topic as substantial as human rights gives students real reason to work through the difficulty rather than treating the grammar as abstract.
How to Use These in Class
Use the reading itself for reported speech practice
Since Lesson 2 covers a real declaration, having students report what it “says” or “states” in their own words connects Lesson 6’s grammar directly back to authentic content.
Ground conditional type 2 in genuine reflection
Questions like “If you were a world leader, what would you change?” give Lesson 7’s hypothetical grammar real, thoughtful content rather than generic examples.
Formal letter writing needs an explicit register shift
Since this may be students’ first formal letter, explicitly contrast it with the informal letters from earlier units — different greeting, different closing, more careful tone — rather than assuming the shift is obvious.
