Why this lesson works
The lesson follows a clear progression: Pass and name objects in a circle game, ask 'Can I have a...?' politely, roleplay a mini classroom shop. Teachers can open the materials and start immediately, while students move from supported vocabulary practice to purposeful spoken English.
