| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Meme discussion) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Let's start with a smile. Look at this image." (Displays a meme showing a cartoon character with a thought bubble saying "I said I'd do it later," and a speech bubble from the same character saying "He said he would do it later."). "Why is this meme about us, especially today? What is the joke based on?"
Possible prompts: "What's the difference between the two sentences? Which one is a direct quote? Which one is someone reporting what was said? Have you ever had to tell a friend what another friend said? How did you do it?" Script: "Exactly! It shows the same idea said in two different ways. Today, we're mastering that skill of reporting speech accurately, which is crucial for summarizing stories, reporting news, or even just sharing gossip professionally!" |
Students observe the meme. They discuss in pairs (3 pairs total). They identify the humor: the character is reporting his own procrastination. They note the shift from "I said I'd" to "He said he would." Volunteers share their ideas with the class. |
