Teacher: "Good morning! I have a question for you. Show slide with question. 'Which country do you think is the original home of the tulip: the Netherlands, Turkey, or Kazakhstan?' Please vote by raising your hand for your choice. Count votes. Interesting! Let's watch a very short clip. Play 45-second video. So, Kazakhstan is one of the ancestral homes for many wild tulips! Today, we will explore the vocabulary of Kazakhstan's beautiful and unique flowers. Our value today is diligence – finishing our work with quality." | Students listen to the question, vote by raising hands, and watch the short video.
