Teacher: "Good morning, class! Look at this picture on the board. [Shows a meme of a person hugging a book with the caption 'My weekend plans vs. Reality']. Why do you think I showed this? How is this about us, especially in our 'Reading for Pleasure' unit?" Possible prompts: "Have you ever planned to read but got distracted? What makes reading pleasurable for you?" Script: "Let's hear from 2-3 volunteers. Yes, Aliya? 'Because we love books but sometimes we are lazy.' Good point! This connects to our topic today: we will write to a friend about the books we truly enjoy, sharing that pleasure." |
Students observe the meme. They think and respond to the teacher's question. Possible responses: "It's funny because it's true," "We all like reading for fun," "Sometimes we plan to read but watch TV instead." |
