| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Meme discussion) |
Teacher: "Good morning, class! Look at this image on the board. [Shows a meme: A picture of a person looking shocked at a messy room, with the caption "When you finally clean your room and find treasure under the bed... King Tut's tomb discovery vibes."] Why do you think I'm showing you this? What could this have to do with us and our lesson today?" Possible prompts: "Think about discoveries. Think about history." Teacher: "Exactly! Today, we are going to be history detectives ourselves. We're traveling to ancient Egypt to learn about a young pharaoh and the incredible discovery of his tomb. Our topic is 'Tutankhamun'. By the end, you'll be able to tell me key facts about him and how his tomb was found." |
Students observe the meme. They think and respond to the teacher's question. Possible responses: "It's about finding something old and valuable." "It's like an archaeological discovery." "It's connected to history and Egypt." |
