Teacher: "Good morning! I have a provocative question for you. Imagine you are in a house and a tornado is coming. You have only 10 seconds. Would you: A) Hide in the basement, B) Climb to the attic, C) Stay in the center of the ground floor? Show me with your fingers: 1 for A, 2 for B, 3 for C." (Teacher counts votes). "Interesting! Now, turn to your partner and explain your choice in one sentence. Why did you choose that option?" (Teacher circulates, listens to a few pairs). "We heard different ideas. Today, we will read about a man named Matt Suter who experienced a tornado in a very unusual way. Let's see what happened to him and what we can learn." | Students vote by showing fingers. They then turn to a partner (13 students: 6 pairs + 1 group of 3) and share their reasoning. They listen to the teacher's introduction. |
Descriptors: Participates in voting; articulates a reason for choice to a partner; listens attentively. Points: No points. |
