Teacher notes

Sarah's morning

Language point

Third conditional

Aim

To present and practise the third

conditional.

Activity

Students use situations in a story to form

third conditional sentences.

Organization

Pair work

Preparation

Make enough copies of the story for

the number of students in your class.

Cut up the story into paragraphs and mix

them up.

What do I do?

1 Pre-teach new vocabulary from the

story.

2 Put students into pairs and hand out

the cut up story.

3 Students read and order paragraphs of

the story.

4 Ask students if Sarah had a good or a

bad morning (bad). Ask students what

problems she had.

5 Write each problem on the board as

students call them out and then ask

them what the result of each problem

was:

Her alarm didn't go off – she overslept.

6 Now ask students to imagine Sarah

had a good morning, and write on

the board accordingly under each

example:

Her alarm went off – she didn't oversleep.

7 Use one example to present the third

conditional:

If her alarm had gone off, she wouldn't
have overslept.

8 Pairs make third conditional sentences

with the remaining examples.

Sarah’s morning!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sarah had to be at the airport for her flight at

9am, but her alarm didn't go off and she

overslept. She got dressed very quickly, threw

everything into her suitcase and ran out of the

house.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When she got to the airport she realised she

had forgotten her passport. So she jumped in a

taxi and returned home. She grabbed her

passport from the coffee table, got in a taxi and

went back to the airport.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One mile from the airport the taxi broke down.

She tried to flag down another, but they were

all taken and so she ran the rest of the way.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When she arrived at the airport, she saw that

she had missed her flight. She had to pay 500

dollars for another ticket for the next flight.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While she was waiting, she went to buy a book.

She was so preoccupied with her difficult

morning that she walked out of the shop

without paying and was arrested by the police.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The police detained her for three hours and she

missed her flight again. Sarah went home and

decided never to fly again!
