| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Meme discussion) |
Teacher: "Good morning, class! I want to show you something funny. Look at this picture on the screen." (Displays a meme of a cartoon character with a glazed expression, surrounded by sugary snacks and soda, with the caption: "My brain during a test."). "Why do you think I'm showing you this? What's the joke about?"
Prompting questions: "What is the character eating and drinking? How do you think they feel? Have you ever felt like this after too many sweets? Why is this picture 'about us' and our lesson topic today?" Teacher script: "Exactly! What we eat and drink can really affect how well we can focus. Today, we're going to be food detectives and find out which foods are like 'super fuel' for our attention span!" |
Students observe the meme and share their ideas.
Possible responses: "He ate too much candy." "He can't think." "Sugar makes you crash." "It's about food and focus." "We should eat better to concentrate." |
