Teacher: "Good morning class! Today we begin with a real story. Last month, a British journalist visited a Maasai tribe in Kenya. During a ceremony, an elder said: 'Our ancestors performed this dance for centuries.' Later, the journalist reported this to his editor but made mistakes. What do you think happened? Predict how the message might have been confused." Instructions: "In pairs, discuss for 2 minutes what errors could occur when reporting someone's words. Think about tense changes or pronoun mistakes." |
Students pair up (7 pairs total) and brainstorm possible reporting errors. They share predictions like: "Maybe he changed the tense wrong" or "He might have used wrong pronouns." Possible responses: "The journalist said that their ancestors perform this dance" (incorrect tense backshift), "He said that his ancestors performed it" (wrong pronoun). |
Observation of pair discussions; listening for accurate predictions of common reported speech errors. Descriptor: Student identifies at least one potential error in tense or pronoun shift. | Whiteboard, markers, laptop with internet access. AI: ChatGPT-generated real cultural misunderstanding scenarios about traditions. |
