Teacher: "Good morning, class! Let's start with a smile. Look at this picture on the board." (Shows a meme: A cartoon apple tree with a golden apple, looking confused, with the caption: "When you're a legendary tree but everyone just wants your fruit."). "Why do you think I showed this picture? Why is this about us and our lesson today?" Possible prompts: "Think about our topic 'My Country'. What famous stories from Kazakhstan involve nature or trees?" "What does 'legend' mean?" Teacher: "Exactly! Today we are reading a Kazakh legend about a special tree. This connects us to our culture and the value of unity. Let's discover the story together." |
Students look at the image, smile, and think. They respond to the teacher's questions. Possible responses: "It's an apple tree, maybe from a story?" "It's golden, like in fairy tales." "It's about Kazakhstan because we have many legends about nature." "It's about us because we learn about our history." |
Descriptors: The student participates in the discussion, attempts to connect the image to the lesson topic, and shows curiosity. No points. |
