| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Storytelling with a trigger) |
Teacher: "Good morning, class! Let me tell you a quick story about a student named Alex. Alex got a C on his last math test. His teacher said, 'Alex, you're just not a math person. You should focus on art instead.' So, Alex stopped trying in math. Years later, he became a famous painter but always regretted not becoming an engineer, which was his childhood dream. What do you think about this story? Is there something wrong with the teacher's conclusion?" Listen to 2-3 responses. Teacher: "Exactly! The trigger is the idea that we have just one type of 'smartness'. Today, we challenge that. Our topic is the Theory of Multiple Intelligences by Howard Gardner, which suggests we have at least 8 different kinds of intelligence. Let's explore!" |
Students listen to the story. They identify the deliberate mistake/trigger: the teacher labeling Alex as only one type of learner. Students volunteer answers, showing initial curiosity. | Descriptors: • Student identifies the limiting belief in the story. • Student expresses initial curiosity or asks a clarifying question. No points. |
Whiteboard/Marker, Projector (optional for title slide). AI Tool: ChatGPT could generate alternative story endings to prompt discussion. |
