THE PAST SIMPLE TENSE - ESSENTIALS
I actually created this grammar guide/practice for my adult students, because they like to have everything in one place - rules, basics, and basic practice. They found it very useful, and I still use it with adults and teenagers when I want them to concentrate seriously.

Almost lover - lyrics worksheet
This is a wonderful song I did with my teenage students. They loved singing it, even though it feels kind of sad and melancholic. With my high school students, I had a discussion afterwards about the fine line between friendship and love, and about loving and being loved. All around, a very romantic lesson.
