The main context of the lesson is a conversation between a young man and woman about where to go for dinner.
The man has a memory lapse, which provokes an angry reaction in his partner. Their conversation contrasts the present perfect and the simple past in a natural context: Have von been to. ..? When did you go? Why did you go there? The lesson starts with a listening activity inspired by a real episode in an American TV series in which Sts are exposed to both the present perfect (for past experiences) and the simple past. This leads into the grammar focus.
In Vocabulary and Pronunciation, Sts get more practice in forming and pronouncing regular and irregular past participles. The lesson finishes with a speaking activity in which they ask opening questions in the present perfect with recently and ever . and then they ask simple follow-up questions using the simple past.
