| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement ("What if...?" question) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Today we're talking about health and the words we use to talk about it. Let's start with a 'What if...?' question. What if you want to give advice to a friend who has a headache? What words could you use? Think for 30 seconds, then share with your partner." After pair discussion, teacher asks 2-3 pairs to share. Teacher writes key modal verbs (should, can, might) from responses on the board. "Great! These special words are called modal verbs. They help us express ability, advice, possibility, and more. Today we'll learn to use them correctly when talking about our health." | Students think individually, then discuss the question in pairs (7 pairs, 1 group of 3 if uneven). They propose phrases like "You should drink water," "You can take a rest," "It might be stress." They listen to peers and to the teacher's introduction. | Descriptors only (no points): • The student participates in the pair discussion. • The student attempts to formulate advice using modal verbs or related vocabulary. • The student listens attentively to peers. |
Whiteboard/marker, student notebooks. AI Tool: ChatGPT can be used by the teacher before the lesson to generate a list of diverse student-like responses to the "What if" question to anticipate and guide discussion. |
