| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Provocative question & voting) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Today we're thinking about our planet. I have one question for you: Is it more important to protect a single, unique animal from extinction, or to focus on solving broader problems like pollution that affect millions of people? Don't overthink it. Show me your answer: Thumbs UP for protecting the animal, Thumbs DOWN for focusing on broader human problems, Thumbs to the SIDE if you can't decide or think both are equally important." (Teacher counts votes visibly). "Interesting! Let's hear one quick reason from each side. [Calls on 1-2 students from each group]. Thank you. Both perspectives are valid. Today, we will explore the stories of endangered species from around the world, which will help us understand different viewpoints on this complex issue." | Students listen to the question. They vote using thumbs. Selected students briefly share their reasoning (e.g., "Every species is important for nature," or "We should help people first."). All others listen actively. | Formative: Observation of participation in voting and quality of initial reasoning. Diagnostic of prior knowledge and personal perspectives. | None required. AI Tool Suggestion: Mentimeter or Slido for anonymous live polling and instant word cloud generation of reasons, visualizing the range of perspectives in the class. |
