Teacher: "Good morning, class. Imagine you are the king of a tiny asteroid, like Asteroid B-612 from our story. You have only one subject: a single rose. What is the first rule or law you would establish to take care of your planet and your rose? Think for 30 seconds." (Pause). "Now, turn to your partner and share your rule. Explain why it's important." After pair work: "I heard some great ideas: 'Water the rose every morning,' 'Remove baobab sprouts daily.' These are rules for care and safety. Today, we will read a chapter from 'The Little Prince' where he meets a king who loves giving orders. Let's predict: What problems might arise if a king makes rules for things he cannot control?" |
Students think individually, then discuss in pairs. They share predictions with the class (e.g., "The rules might be silly," "People might not listen," "It could cause confusion"). | Descriptors: The student participates in the discussion, offers a plausible prediction related to rules and authority. (no points) | Whiteboard/flipchart, markers. AI Tool: ChatGPT to generate a list of imaginative "asteroid laws" for teacher examples if needed. |
