Teacher: "Good morning! Today, we're explorers. I want to tell you a short story about a recent discovery. Listen carefully. 'Last year, a team of scientists explore a deep cave. They find amazing things. They discovered ancient bones. The bones are examined. They were identified as a new species of dinosaur. The cave was mapped by drones. Incredible photos are taken.' Did you notice anything unusual in how I told the story? Think about the verbs."
Prompt students: "Which actions were done by someone, and which actions just happened to the subject?" Elicit that some verbs are active ("explore", "find") and some are passive ("were identified", "was mapped"). Point out the deliberate mistake: mixing present and past tenses inconsistently. Introduce the focus: "Today we focus on describing discoveries in the Past Passive – when the action is more important than who did it." |
Students listen to the story. They try to spot the inconsistent verb tenses and the mix of active/passive. They respond to teacher questions, suggesting which sentences sounded different. They note the lesson topic. | Provide a printed version of the teacher's story with key passive verbs highlighted. Use visuals (icons of a scientist, bone, drone). Allow verbal instead of written responses. | Descriptors only (no points):
