Teacher says: “Good morning! Let’s start with a 90‑second challenge. I’ll show you six pictures of very unusual jobs. In pairs (desk neighbours), write down the job name if you know it — or invent a funny name. Timer starts now!” (Teacher displays slides: 1. pet food tester, 2. golf ball diver, 3. professional sleeper, 4. snake milker, 5. LEGO sculptor, 6. odour judge.) After 90 sec: “Pair up with the pair next to you (groups of 4). Share your ideas. Then I’ll ask 2–3 groups to share one funny name.” Teacher prompts: “What do you imagine they do? Which one seems strangest?” AI integration: teacher used ChatGPT to generate the six weird job images (Midjourney style) and print slide. |
