๐ฎ My Free Time: Present Simple and Frequency Words
A fully interactive A1 Teens grammar-and-speaking lesson built around free-time activities. Students begin with four reflection warm-up questions, then study the language in three clear blocks: a picture grid of twelve free-time activities (play football, play games, read books, listen to music, watch TV, ride a bike, draw, dance, swim, cook, take photos, do puzzles), a Present Simple block reviewing the base form and the -s ending for he/she/it plus the simple negative (I don't watch TV), and a frequency block featuring a colour-coded frequency bar from always (100%) down to never (0%) with always, usually, sometimes, rarely and never, plus a word-order table showing the adverb goes before the verb. Ten everyday words (free time, hobby, always, usually, sometimes, never, play, watch, weekend, favourite) appear in a horizontally scrollable table with simple A1 definitions and example sentences, and six receive detailed review flashcards. The reading is a magazine-style feature with four first-person mini-stories from teens in Spain, Jordan, Japan, and Canada, each describing their hobbies and how often they do them, with key vocabulary highlighted on hover. Practice includes 8 contextualised fill-in-the-blank questions (frequency words, verbs, and the -s ending) with live green/red validation, hints, and a running score; a speaking section with five interview prompts and a model dialogue; a guided 30โ50 word writing task with a four-point checklist (using frequency words in the correct position) and live word counter; and a full 8-question multiple-choice quiz featuring a progress bar, per-question explanations, a conic-gradient result circle with tiered motivational feedback, and localStorage persistence.
