You might not need to devote an entire lesson to abbreviations but approaches as well as textbooks vary. Certain things like AM and PM you may just sneak in to your time lessons with really talking about what they stand for because honestly, many native speakers have no idea what words they represent but you might take a moment to explain what P.S. means at the end of a letter. Some abbreviations are more common than others and those are the ones you are going to want to focus on in your lessons. Students who are studying business English or at a very advanced level may be interested in learning some more specific terms which apply to their interests. As always what you choose to include in your lessons should be based on your students’ interests or goals and their level.
