| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Real-life case hook) |
Teacher: "Good morning, class! I want to show you a headline from last week's news." (Projects headline: "Rare Snow Leopard Spotted in Kazakhstan's Altyn Emel National Park After 10 Years"). "Look at the picture. What do you see? Based on this headline, what do you think might have happened in this park to allow this rare animal to be seen again? Discuss with your partner for one minute."
After discussion: "Who can share their prediction? Yes, protection, no hunting, maybe special programs. Today, we will explore the places that make such news possible: nature reserves." |
Students look at the projected image and headline. They discuss in pairs (7 pairs total) and make predictions (e.g., "The park is safe for animals," "Scientists helped," "People stopped building there").
Volunteers share predictions with the class. |
Descriptors:
|
Projector/Screen, headline and image of a snow leopard in a mountainous landscape (prepared slide). AI Tool Suggestion: AI image generator (e.g., DALL-E, Midjourney) to create a realistic, engaging image of a snow leopard in a Kazakh national park for the hook. |
