| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Mind Map & Discussion) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Today's topic is hidden in these pictures." (Shows slides of diverse athletes celebrating, a team huddle, a solo runner). "I want you to think for 1 minute: What personal qualities do you need to be successful in sports? Write down or draw all your ideas. Ready? Go!" (Times 1 minute). "Time's up. Look at your ideas. Now, please share three of them with the class. For example, I see 'strong' – that's an adjective. What else?" Possible prompts: "Is 'teamwork' a thing or a description? (A thing – a noun). How about 'brave'? (A description – an adjective)." |
Students individually create a mind map, writing words like: strong, fast, team player, confidence, hard-working. After 1 minute, they volunteer to share three ideas with the class (e.g., "I wrote 'determination', 'speed', and 'friendly'."). They listen to peers and classify words as nouns or adjectives with teacher guidance. | Oral questioning: Can the student provide relevant qualities? Can they初步 distinguish between a noun (thing/idea) and an adjective (description)? Descriptor: Provides at least 2 relevant personal qualities. |
PPT slides with sports images. Digital whiteboard (Jamboard) for collective mind map. Timer. AI Tool Integration: Use an AI image generator (e.g., Midjourney/DALL-E) to create custom, engaging visuals of athletes displaying specific qualities (e.g., "determination," "cooperation") to prompt more precise vocabulary. |
