| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Provocative question & vote) |
Teacher: "Good morning, everyone. I have a question for you: 'Is a photograph an objective truth, or is it always shaped by the photographer's opinion?' Don't answer out loud yet. Please vote: show me a thumbs up if you believe it's an objective truth. Show me a thumbs down if you believe it's always shaped by opinion. (Wait for voting). Interesting split! Let's hear a couple of quick reasons. [Calls on 2-3 students] Thank you. Today, we will become detectives of both the image and the speaker's intent. Our topic is 'Photo Description and Comparison.'" | Students listen to the question and vote using thumbs up/down. Selected students briefly share their reasoning (e.g., "A photo shows what's there" vs. "The photographer chooses what to include"). | Observational assessment of participation in voting and quality of initial reasoning. | Whiteboard/Blackboard. AI Tool: A live polling tool (e.g., Mentimeter) could be used to anonymously collect and display votes and word clouds of reasons, engaging all students instantly and providing a visual debate starter. |
