| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (What if...?) |
Teacher: "Good morning, everyone. Let's start with a 'What if...?' question. Please think for a moment: 'What if the average global temperature rose by 3°C by the year 2050? What would our city look and feel like?' Turn to your partner and share one concrete change you imagine." Script: "Okay, time's up. Who would like to share their or their partner's idea? Yes, Aruzhan?" Possible Responses: "There would be no snow in winter." / "We'd have more frequent heatwaves and droughts." / "Some neighborhoods might flood." Teacher: "Excellent observations. These are potential local consequences of a global process we're exploring today: global warming. This lesson will help us understand not just the facts, but also the perspectives behind them and our role in the story." |
Students think individually, then discuss in pairs (Think-Pair-Share). Volunteers share ideas with the whole class. | Oral formative assessment: Observation of engagement and relevance of ideas. | Projector/Screen for question prompt. Timer. AI Tool: An image generator (e.g., Midjourney, DALL-E) could be used beforehand to create speculative "future city" visuals based on climate predictions to stimulate discussion. |
