๐ Breaking Habits
Students read a magazine-style article about why bad habits are hard to break, learning how the brain creates habit loops through cues, routines and rewards. The reading naturally embeds used to and would for past habits, which students then analyse in the grammar focus. A sentence-transformation game, comprehension quiz, fill-in-the-blanks exercise and speaking\/writing tasks all revolve around the theme of breaking and forming habits.
