Lesson Objectives 1. Students will make active sentences passive. 2. Students will make passive sentences active. 3. Students will identify situations that require passive voice.

Warm-up and Objective Discussion 1. Ask students the difference between “I took the money” and “The money was taken by me.” Tell students that they will learn rules about the passive voice. Tell them that it is quite common not to add the phrase “by me.” 2. Inform them they will listen to a song that will teach them: a. how to form the passive voice b. why the passive voice is used c. different verb forms for the passive voice Instruct and Model  R  W  L  S 1. Play “Passive Voice Song.” Run through song twice. Students fill out the cloze passage during the first rehearsal, and teacher helps students fill out missing words during the second rehearsal. 2. Have students notice the following elements about the song: a. You form the passive voice by removing the subject and putting the object in its place. b. The passive form is used because i. the subject is not known ii. the subject is unimportant (ie: the object of the active sentence is the focus and therefore should be up front) iii. the subject is something the speaker wishes to hide or deemphasize for some reason (If I broke the window, for example, maybe it is better to focus on the window itself). c. have students try to identify each tense in the “Mary” section. The have been labeled a through f for convenience in discussing. Example: Mary helped the boy…the boy was helped (simple past) Guided Practice  R  W  L  S 1. Use flashcards to further help students understand passive voice forms for each verb tense 2. Have students, in pairs or groups, create their own passive voice sentences by thinking of sentences wherein the subject (of the active sentence) is not known, unimportant, or hidden.
