Students discuss their experiences from the previous day and compare them with other days or experiences. Suggested questions: - What did you do yesterday? - Was yesterday busier than the day before? - What was the most difficult task you completed this week? - Did you have a more challenging patient recently? - What was the best professional experience you had this month? Students share their partners' answers with the group. The teacher monitors the use of past-tense verbs and comparisons, identifying recurring mistakes for later review.

Students receive a short veterinary case divided into eight mixed-up events. Each event includes a verb in its base form. Students must conjugate the verbs correctly, arrange the events chronologically, and connect them using appropriate time expressions. Example: - The owner / bring / the dog to the clinic. - The technician / check / its vital signs. - The veterinarian / find / signs of infection. - The veterinarian / prescribe / treatment. - The patient / recover / after several days. Students reconstruct the complete story orally and then compare their versions with the other pair. The teacher reviews common errors, especially irregular verbs and the use of connectors.

The teacher reviews the formation and use of comparatives and superlatives through examples related to veterinary medicine and professional experiences. Adjective Comparative Superlative Small Smaller The smallest Busy Busier The busiest Experienced More experienced The most experienced Reliable More reliable The most reliable Difficult More difficult The most difficult Good Better The best Bad Worse The worst Far Farther / Further The farthest / furthest The teacher highlights the following structures: - Comparatives: adjective + -er + than / more + adjective + than - Superlatives: the + adjective + -est / the most + adjective - Equality: as + adjective + as Examples: - "This patient's recovery was faster than the previous patient's." - "That was the most difficult diagnosis I made last year." - "The new technician was as reliable as the experienced technician." Students create additional examples using Week 1 vocabulary.

Each pair receives information about three fictional veterinary patients. Patient Age Weight Recovery time Max – Dog 8 years 30 kg 12 days Luna – Cat 3 years 4 kg 5 days Rocky – Dog 5 years 18 kg 8 days Students compare the patients using the information provided. Example sentences: - "Max was older than Rocky." - "Luna was the youngest patient." - "Rocky was lighter than Max." - "Luna recovered faster than the other patients." - "Max had the longest recovery time." Students then create a short narrative describing what happened to one patient, using the Simple Past and at least three time connectors.

Students interview each other about memorable professional experiences and veterinary cases. Suggested questions: - What was the most difficult case you treated? - Was it more complicated than other cases? - What symptoms did the patient have? - What did you do first? - How did the patient's recovery compare with other patients' recoveries? - What was the most important lesson you learned? - Did the experience help you develop more confidence? After the interviews, each student presents their partner's experience to the group. Requirements: - At least five Simple Past verbs. - At least three time connectors. - At least two comparatives and one superlative. - At least five Week 1 vocabulary items.

Students participate in a simulated veterinary team meeting. Each student receives a different clinical case with information about the patient's symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. Students present their cases chronologically and discuss differences between them. Suggested discussion questions: - Which patient had the most serious symptoms? - Which case was more complicated? - Which patient recovered faster? - Which treatment required more follow-up? - What did the veterinarians do first? - Which case had the best prognosis? Students must explain their answers using information from the case cards rather than simply selecting an option. The teacher monitors grammatical accuracy, vocabulary usage, and communication.

Students write a short comparison of two real or imaginary veterinary cases, approximately 100–120 words. Their writing must include: - At least five Simple Past verbs, including two irregular verbs. - At least three time connectors. - At least two comparatives. - At least one superlative. - At least five Week 1 vocabulary items. Students exchange their writing and check verb forms, comparison structures, chronological order, and vocabulary usage.

Students complete a short assessment containing: - Two questions on regular and irregular Simple Past verbs. - Two questions on negative or interrogative past-tense forms. - Two questions on comparatives and superlatives. - One chronological sequencing question using time connectors. - One vocabulary question requiring a sentence with a Week 1 phrasal verb. The teacher reviews common mistakes and provides brief individual feedback.
