Organization moment:

Greeting the leaners. I’ll greet leaners and introduce with the learning objectives.

Psychological training. Play game: “Stand up if you’ve ever …”

stand up if you have ever - a present perfect game. This present perfect game encourages students to talk about their life experiences and to reveal their more interesting stories.

Stand up if you’ve ever flown in a plane.

Stand up if you’ve ever been to Astana.

Stand up if you’ve never eaten a hamburger.

I’ll go round the class two or three times and make sure to encourage questions about some of the stories as I uncover them. This game is a great conversation starter. The winner is the leaner with the most points under their name at the end.
