| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (meme) |
Teacher displays a humorous meme: a person confidently filling in a form with “I’m happy that Kazakhstan is independent!”, but the grammar is messy.
Teacher script: “Look at this meme. Why is this funny? What’s wrong with the sentence? (It says “I’m happy that Kazakhstan is independent” but the original has ‘happy for’ – incorrect complement). Why does it matter to use the right structure? This is about our country – we express pride correctly!” Ask: “What adjective + complement do you see? Is it correct? How would you fix it?” |
Students observe meme, then share ideas: “The adjective is ‘happy’ – and it should be followed by ‘that + clause’ or infinitive. We can say “I’m happy that Kazakhstan is independent” or “I’m happy to live in an independent country.”
Quick pair-share (12 students → 6 pairs). Each pair offers one fixed sentence. |
Assessment criteria: participation, understanding of formality/complement. Descriptors: student identifies the issue, suggests correct structure; no points awarded (formative). |
Meme slide (projector), whiteboard, markers. |
