|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (method: provocative question + quick voting) |
Teacher displays a slide or writes on board: "Which machine is the slowest: a bicycle, a skateboard, or a walking robot?" "Raise your hand for bicycle, two hands for skateboard, stand up for walking robot." Count votes quickly. "Interesting! Now listen to a short story about these three machines. After that we will compare them." (Teacher reads short narrative: Yesterday I saw a bicycle, a skateboard and a walking robot. The bicycle was slow. The skateboard was slower. The walking robot was the slowest.) "Which one is the slowest? Yes, the walking robot." "Today we will learn how to compare machines using words like slow, slower, slowest. And we will work like real professionals – carefully and till the end." |
- Students listen to the question. - Vote with hands/standing. - Listen to the narrative. - Answer: "walking robot". - Show readiness. |
Descriptors (no points): • actively participates in voting • listens to narrative • gives correct answer |
Slide with question (or board), teacher's narrative script. AI tool suggestion: use ChatGPT to generate alternative short narratives with different machines. |
