Teacher preparation: display a humorous meme/image about PE class or students’ gym habits on the projector/smartboard. (Image file: "gym_meme.jpg" or generated via Canva/Midjourney). 1. Show the meme. Pause for 5–10 seconds. 2. Ask the class: "Why is this about us? What future plans or habits does this meme show?" 3. Elicit quick short answers, write key words on board (e.g., "go to gym", "train tomorrow", "will start", "going to start"). 4. Say: "Today we will look at how we talk about future plans — when we decide now (will) and when we already planned (be going to) — and also present continuous for fixed plans." Full teacher-class dialogue (script): - Teacher: "Look at this meme. What is funny here? Who can summarize it in one sentence?" - (Wait 3–4 responses) - Teacher: "Why is this about us — is someone planning to go to the gym? Say that using a future form." - Teacher writes 2 model sentences on board: "I will start going to the gym next week." and "I'm going to start going to the gym next Monday." |
- Students look, laugh, answer (short responses). - Individual quick oral responses: e.g., "It is about people who say they will start but don't." "I'm going to train tomorrow." "I will join the team." - One or two students repeat teacher model sentences. | - Informal observation: teacher notes 3–4 students using correct form spontaneously. - Quick diagnostic slip: teacher asks all students to write one future sentence on a mini-slip (1 line). Collect slips to gauge baseline (marks: G = good, S = some errors, N = needs support). Success descriptors: - G: sentence uses correct structure "will" or "be going to" appropriately and is understandable. - S: sentence has one minor error but is understandable. - N: missing auxiliary or incorrect verb form. |
