Nearly every culture has a holiday dedicated specifically to moms, but how often do we stop and really think about all that they do? This downloadable EFL lesson on Mother’s Day first gives your learners a fun puzzle as they watch a clever commercial made about the importance of mothers and all that they do for us and then allows your students to appreciate their caregiver for themselves. At the end of the lesson, students get to show a little appreciate by writing a Thank You card to their caregiver. Imagine how proud Mom will be when she gets a Thank You card written in English!
