| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Storytelling with a trigger) |
Teacher: "Good morning, class! Let's start with a quick story about my last holiday. Listen carefully and tell me if you hear something strange. 'Last summer, I am visiting (trigger mistake) the mountains. While I hiked, the sun was shining brightly. Suddenly, I see (trigger mistake) a beautiful eagle. It was flying in circles above me.' So, what sounded odd?"
Expected student response: "You said 'am visiting' and 'see', but it's in the past." Teacher: "Excellent spotting! Today, we're going to master using the correct past tenses—past simple and past continuous—to tell our own amazing travel stories without those mistakes." |
Students listen attentively to the story. They raise hands to identify the grammatical errors (present tenses used instead of past). They engage in a brief discussion about why the tenses were incorrect. | Provide a printed version of the teacher's story with the trigger mistakes highlighted in color. Use gestures and slower speech while telling the story. | Descriptors: The student actively listens and attempts to identify the inconsistency in the story. No points. |
