| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (method: Meme discussion) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Look at this picture." Show a meme of a skyscraper with plants growing out of every window. "Why is this picture funny? Is it just a joke, or could it be about our future? Why might this be about us, here in Kazakhstan?" Possible prompts: "Where do our vegetables come from? What if we had no space?" Listen to 2-3 student ideas. "Today, we will learn about a real technology that is a bit like this picture. It's called vertical farming. Our goals are to learn new words and understand how it works." |
Students look at the meme, think, and share their ideas. They might say: "It's funny because buildings are for people, not plants." / "Maybe it's about growing food in cities." / "It could be about us if we need more food." | Descriptors: The student observes the visual stimulus. The student attempts to express a personal opinion or guess in English. No points. |
Projector/Screen. Meme image: "Skyscraper Farm" (visual). AI Tool: AI Image Generator (e.g., DALL-E, Midjourney) – Used by the teacher before the lesson to create a custom, engaging meme tailored to the local context (e.g., a Nur-Sultan skyscraper with greenery). This visual hook immediately engages students and personalizes the topic. |
