Teacher: "Good morning! Let's start with a quick brain-teaser. Listen carefully: 'I am something everyone has, but some feel they never have enough of me. I can be filled with hobbies, scrolling, or nothing at all. I am not money, but I am often spent. What am I?' Take 30 seconds to think. Share your hypothesis with your elbow partner." After partner talk: "Who would like to share their guess? Yes, Aruzhan?" Expected Student Response: "Time?" or "Free time?" Teacher: "Exactly! 'Free time.' Today, we're exploring exactly that: Teenagers and Free Time. We'll become word detectives, learning how to figure out new words from context and discussing how we all spend this precious resource differently." |
