| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Riddle) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Let's start with a brain-teaser. Listen carefully: 'I am a city of the future, but I have no streets. I am built on data, but I have no walls. I am designed to solve problems, but I create new ones. What am I?' Think for a moment, then share your hypotheses with your elbow partner." After 1 minute: "Okay, let's hear some ideas. What could this be describing?" Possible prompts: "Think about Unit 6. What does STEM help us build or imagine?" "Is it a physical object or a concept?" |
Students listen to the riddle. They think individually, then discuss with a partner. They propose hypotheses (e.g., "A virtual reality world," "An AI system," "A smart city," "The internet," "A digital twin"). |
Descriptors (no points): • The student actively listens to the riddle. • The student engages in partner discussion. • The student proposes a logical hypothesis connected to STEM or future concepts. |
