| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Riddle) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Let's start with a puzzle. I am an industry that can bring wealth to a remote village but might also drain its water supply. I create jobs but can also turn a sacred mountain into a crowded path. I am powered by curiosity and leisure, but my impact is measured in dollars and cents. What am I? Discuss with your partner for one minute and share your hypothesis."
After discussion: "So, what do you think? Yes, tourism! And today we'll explore its complex relationship with economics, specifically around natural wonders." |
Students listen, discuss the riddle in pairs, and propose answers. Possible responses: "Tourism?", "The travel business?", "Maybe it's about hotels and visitors?" | Descriptors: The student participates in the discussion, offers a logical hypothesis related to the riddle's clues. (no points) | Projector/Screen, presentation slide with the riddle. |
