King Who Loved Stories - November 11, 2019
Lesson Collection #5 - Lesson 20
This is an easy, yet captivating lesson that concentrates on the correct usage of verbs. Look at the following sentence and identify what's wrong with it:
Once upon a time, there is a great King who loves to listened to stories.
See anything not quite right? Actually, there are three mistakes in the above sentence, all of the verbs are in the wrong tense. It should read:
Once upon a time, there was a great King who loved to listen to stories.
With this two-page lesson, students will be busy correcting the verbs, and that's all that they will need to correct. (Spelling, grammar and punctuation are all OK.) The story is broken into lines and a number to the right off the line tells the students how many errors there are in each.
When finished, students can read the story in unison and discuss the story itself; it's a really fun story.
What Makes Our Lessons Different?
Teachers Save Time
Reduce lesson planning and gain freedom in the classroom. With all students busy, the teacher can casually roam around the classroom and offer assistance wherever needed.
Students Learn by Doing
Minutes after beginning each lesson, classes often become noisy. At times, very noisy. Why? Students, in pairs or small groups, actively engage in completing the lesson task. They use English to learn English.
Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing
Oral communication is important. Listening and speaking have priority in our lessons; students need to carefully listen to each other. Reading is also important for the success of the lessons. The amount of writing required varies.
Fun for Teachers & Students
We believe students learn better when having fun. Our lessons range from silly to serious but each has a solid task-specific educational goal including grammar usage, vocabulary building and fluency improvement to name a few.

Hey Kurt,
Your lesson worksheets are the best EFL resource I’ve ever used!
Margaret Holt
Dear Kurt,
Your lessons are professionally done and most of all fun!
We all find your materials more than just a fun filler even though they do liven things up.
I post each of your lessons on a teacher’s exchange board Mondays at school for the other trainers. The feedback has been nothing but praise.
Keep up the good work.
Margaret Ann Doty - EFL Trainer
Thanks for all your lessons. They have been a great help.
My students and I have lots of fun using them.

Dear Kurt,
A HUGE THANKS !!
Because of what you do at EFL4U, my school is one of the best in the city. I think it’s really important for students to have fun, to act, to react and learn English by using it! With your active lessons, my students do all of that, and more….
Grammar is taught after or before the lessons… and all of my students learn while having lots of fun.
Kurt, EFL4U IS THE BEST THING THAT I HAVE RECEIVED. EVERY YEAR, YOU ARE MY SANTA CLAUS.
