| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Meme discussion) |
Teacher: "Good morning, everyone! Let's start with a smile. Look at this image." (Displays a meme showing a chaotic, happy family dinner with the caption "Our family tradition: everyone talks at once."). "Why do you think I chose this picture for our lesson today? What does it tell us about families and traditions?" Possible prompts: "Is this similar to your family meals?", "What makes a moment like this a 'tradition'?" Teacher: "Exactly! Traditions are about repeated, shared experiences that create unity. Today, we'll explore traditions from around the world and think about creating new ones that strengthen our bonds." |
Students observe the meme, smile, and share their thoughts. Possible responses: "It's about family time.", "It shows that traditions can be loud and fun.", "It's about us because every family has its own unique way of doing things." |
