| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Riddle) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Let's warm up our brains. I have a riddle for you: 'I am built in Kazakhstan, I am taller than any mountain here, but I am not made of stone. I help people connect across vast distances. What am I?'" (Answer: The Bayterek Tower in Astana/Nur-Sultan, or a communication satellite). "Discuss with your partner for one minute. What could it be? Think about famous structures or modern achievements in Kazakhstan." After discussion: "Let's hear your hypotheses." Listens to 2-3 answers. "Interesting ideas! The key is thinking about modern Kazakhstan in action – buildings, technology, innovation. Today we'll explore language to talk about such achievements." |
Students listen to the riddle. They discuss in pairs, generating hypotheses (e.g., "Is it a skyscraper?", "Maybe the Astana Expo building?", "A space rocket?"). They share their ideas with the class. | Provide the riddle in written form with a visual prompt (picture of modern Astana skyline). Allow for L1 (Kazakh/Russian) discussion before formulating English hypothesis. | Descriptors: The student participates in the discussion, offers a hypothesis related to the topic. (No points) | Projector/Screen, image of modern Kazakhstani landmarks. AI Tool: DALL-E or Midjourney to generate a unique, abstract image hinting at "connection and height" for the riddle prompt. |
