🔍 Post-Lesson Application
Conclude the lesson with the active summary on verbs, which will help reinforce what students have learned. 🗺️ Use the mind map on the present perfect tense to visually connect ideas and concepts. 💬 Encourage students to reflect on their understanding and share their thoughts on the tenses. ⚠️ Remind them to practice using these tenses in their writing and speaking to solidify their learning.
