Active vs Passive · B1 · Made in the World | No-Prep ESL Grammar Lesson

A ready-to-teach B1 grammar lesson on active and passive (present and past simple), built around famous things made around the world.

Students follow a sourced "audio guide" through four continents: paper in China, chocolate in Mexico and Central America, Great Zimbabwe and the Sydney Opera House. They discover how the passive works, race in teams to choose active or passive, then become tour guides for a famous place, food or object from their own country.

What's inside (one PDF):

• 12 colourful slides to project, with answer keys straight after each activity
• 4-page A4 exercise sheet: teacher's notes, answer key and a 2-page student worksheet
• Guided discovery, team race, tour-guide role-play and "made in my country" mingle
• Easier and Harder options, plus an exit ticket and free homework links

Level: B1 · Time: 60–75 minutes · Prep: none. Print, project and teach.
