| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Storytelling with a trigger) |
Teacher: "Good morning, everyone. I want to tell you a quick story. Last week, I met a linguist who told me something fascinating. He said that every single language and tradition in the world is currently being well-documented and preserved by global organizations, so none are at risk of disappearing. He seemed very confident. What do you think? Does his statement feel completely accurate to you?"
Teacher prompts: "Turn to your neighbor and discuss for one minute. Is there a 'trigger' or a potential mistake in my story? Be ready to share your gut feeling." |
Students listen to the story. They discuss in pairs, identifying the deliberate mistake (the claim that all traditions/languages are safe). They share initial thoughts: "That can't be true," "We hear about languages dying," "What about globalization?" |
