Teacher: "Good morning! Let's start with a puzzle. Listen carefully: 'I am not alive, but I grow; I don't have lungs, but I need air; I don't have a mouth, but water kills me. What am I?' Think for 30 seconds, then share your hypothesis with the class."
After students share: "Excellent ideas. The answer is 'fire'. But why start a lesson on space literature with a riddle about fire? What could be the connection? Think about rockets, stars, the sun... Today, we will use our imagination to explore thoughts and feelings about space and listen carefully to discern a speaker's hidden opinions." |
Students listen to the riddle. They think individually, then volunteer answers (e.g., "a plant?", "a candle?", "fire?"). They discuss the connection to the space topic (e.g., "Rockets use fire for thrust," "The sun is a ball of fire"). |
