Teacher: "Good morning! Our unit is 'The Natural World'. Let's do a quick mind map. In 1 minute, write down all words you associate with 'nature' and 'human actions'. Ready? Go!" (Monitors time). "Time's up. [Student A], please share three words from your list." (Listens). "Thank you. Why did you choose 'pollution'?" (Facilitates a 30-second discussion). "[Student B], your three words, please." (Continues). "Excellent. Today, we'll learn a specific grammar tool to talk about these topics from a different perspective: The Passive Voice. It helps us focus on the action or the result, not who does it." |
Students individually create a mind map on a sheet of paper, writing associated words (e.g., forest, water, recycle, build, protect, destroy). Selected students share their words and briefly explain their choices. Others listen and compare. |
