I'm glad my last post helped you.
Can you ask the school to give you complete curriculum for the class, so you know what they expect for the entire term? You know that you will still have to adjust some things, because the level of the students wasn't what the school said it was.
At my school, we have 8 levels of ESL and each level has a fully-detailed curriculum that describes skills, grammar and content. All teachers have access to curriculum before the start of a term. We are not just thrown into a dark pit!
I've been teaching ESL about 5 years. When possible, I plan one week's worth of lessons together. This helps me a lot because I can see the flow through the week. I absolutely never start a class not knowing what I am doing!!
