| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (method: storytelling with deliberate mistake) |
Teacher says: "Listen to a short story. I will make one deliberate mistake – a fact that is not true. Your job is to spot the mistake. Ready?" Story: "My friend Anna decided to live with less. She sold her car, kept only 10 books, and started growing her own food. She says, 'Having less makes me happier.' But here is the mistake: she told me she now owns 3 houses. (pause) Is that possible if she lives with less? Why?" Teacher elicits answer: "The mistake is that she cannot own 3 houses and still practice minimalism. Minimalism means reducing possessions." Connection to lesson: "Today we explore the idea 'Less is more' – how some people choose to live with less and why." |
- Listen attentively - Raise hand when they spot the mistake - Volunteer to explain why it is a mistake - Possible responses: "She can't have 3 houses if she lives with less", "That is not minimalism" |
Descriptors only (no points): • Identifies the deliberate mistake • Provides a logical explanation • Engages in listening |
- Teacher's voice (no extra resources) - Whiteboard for key words |
