| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement ("What if...?" question) |
Teacher: "Good morning, class! Today we're exploring how we talk about actions and their results, especially in nature. Let's start with a 'What if...?' question. What if all the plastic in the world's oceans suddenly disappeared? What would happen? Think about the animals, the water, the beaches. Share your ideas with your partner for one minute."
After pair discussion, the teacher asks for volunteers: "Who would like to share their partner's idea? Aliya, what did your partner say?" The teacher listens and writes a key sentence from a student's response on the board (e.g., "The beaches are cleaned"). The teacher then asks: "Look at this sentence. Who is cleaning the beaches? Is it clear? Today we'll learn a special grammar form that helps us focus on the action or the result, not always the doer. This is called the Passive Voice." |
Students discuss the "What if..." question in pairs. They generate ideas like: "The water would be cleaner," "Many fish would be saved," "Turtles wouldn't eat plastic anymore." They listen to peers and note the example sentence on the board. They try to answer the teacher's question about who performs the action. |

Whiteboard/marker. Timer. AI Tool: ChatGPT can be used by the teacher before the lesson to generate a list of thought-provoking "What if..." scenarios related to the natural world to choose from, ensuring the prompt is engaging and relevant. |
