Procedure of the lesson:

I. Organization moment.

II. Checking up the home task:

-  What was your home task? Are you ready? All right, who wants to start? Read the exercises one by one.

III.      Presentation  of the lesson:

-  I think it’s clear with your homework. Now open your copy books and write down today’s date. What day is it today? Today is the twelfth of February. Today we are going to continue our theme about Passive Voice. Also we are going to talk about its Simple, Progressive and Perfect forms. Who wants to remind me what are they? And give me some examples. Yes, you are right. You need the passive voice in the following cases: Case 1: When it is not known or not necessary to mention who performs the action. Case 2: When it is necessary to draw more attention to the receiver of the action. In this case, the object in the active construction becomes the subject in the passive construction and receives more attention. And progressive tenses are used when we talk about actions that are held in the definite period of time. We make it by adding being. So here is the table to learn:

Present Simple (active voice)	Present Simple (passive voice)
V (s)	Am, are, is + V(III)/ +ed
Past Simple (active voice)	Past Simple (passive voice)
V (II)/ +ed	Was, were + V(III)/ +ed
Present Continuous (active voice)	Present Continuous (passive voice)
Am, are, is + Ving	Am, are, is + being + V(III)/+ed
Past Continuous (active voice)	Past Continuous (passive voice)
Was, were + Ving	Was, were + being + V(III)/+ed

IV. Practice
