| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement ("What if...?") |
Teacher: "Good morning! Today we're launching into Unit 8: Space Facts. Let's start with a 'What if...?' question to ignite our imaginations. What if humanity discovered definitive proof of intelligent alien life tomorrow? What would be the immediate consequences? Think for 30 seconds, then share your ideas with the class." The teacher listens, writes key words (e.g., "panic", "scientific revolution", "new treaties") on the board, and links to the lesson: "These are fascinating opinions. Today, we'll practice spotting opinions in texts and forming complex questions about space topics." | Students think individually, then volunteer answers. Possible responses: "World governments would meet secretly.", "All religions would have to rethink their teachings.", "We would try to send a message back.", "There might be fear and chaos." Students listen to peers. |

Whiteboard/markers. AI Tool: ChatGPT (pre-session). The teacher can use ChatGPT before the lesson to generate a diverse list of possible "What if" scenarios and sample student answers to better guide the discussion. |
