| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Meme discussion) |
Teacher: "Good morning, everyone! Look at this image on the board. [Shows a meme: A person with many alarm clocks, caption: 'My morning routine so that I never miss my online game']. Why do you think I chose this for our lesson today? What is it telling us about reasons and goals?" Possible prompts: "What is the person's goal? How do they achieve it? What word connects the action and the goal here?" Teacher: "Exactly! Today we're diving into how we explain 'why' we do things – our purpose. We'll learn special words like 'so that' and 'in order to' to do this clearly." |
Students observe the meme. They discuss in pairs (5 pairs total). They share ideas: "It's funny because he uses many clocks." "He sets alarms so that he can wake up for the game." "It's about having a strong purpose." They identify the phrase "so that" and connect it to expressing a reason. |
Descriptors: • The student participates in the discussion. • The student identifies the goal/action in the meme. • The student notices the conjunction of purpose. No points. |
Projector/Whiteboard. Meme image. AI Tool: AI image generator (e.g., DALL-E, Midjourney) used to create a custom, culturally relevant meme on "purpose" to instantly capture attention and personalize the hook. |
