🚌 The School Trip
In this reading-based lesson, Finn writes a diary entry about his Year 9 trip to the National History Museum. The story is packed with comic mishaps: a late friend, a phone flying across the coach, a fire alarm, a sandwich in a puddle, and a knocked-over display stand. Students learn Past Continuous for background actions, 'when' for interruptions (Past Simple), 'while' for parallel actions (Past Continuous), and how to combine both tenses in narrative. Includes a sentence-halves matching game, quiz, fill-in-the-blanks, and a writing task about their own trip.
