| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Mind map & discussion) |
Teacher: "Good morning, class! Today's topic is 'How smart is your phone?'. I want you to think about this question. On the board, I'm drawing a mind map with 'SMART PHONE' in the center. You have 1 minute to shout out any words, feelings, or ideas you associate with it. Ready? Go!" (Writes student suggestions as branches, e.g., social media, maps, camera, addiction, helpful). After 1 min: "Great! Now, let's look at three of these words: [e.g., 'addiction', 'maps', 'camera']. In pairs, discuss for 2 minutes: How do these three things show that a phone is 'smart' or perhaps not so smart? Be ready to share one idea." |
Students actively call out associations (e.g., internet, games, battery, expensive, useful, distracting). In pairs, students discuss the selected three concepts, formulating simple arguments. A spokesperson from some pairs shares an idea with the class (e.g., "Maps are smart because they guide you, but they can make you dependent and not learn the way yourself."). |
