- The strategies that I use to open the lesson most frequently
are
• Teacher asks questions
• Brainstorm ideas
• Checking prior knowledge (Games..)
• Video
• Teacher role-play

2) You are going to teach a reading lesson (see below). Decide

what the already-discussed strategies you are going to use to
start our lesson.
I would open this lesson by
- Using flash card of occupations to play memory games on
the board.
- Then I will ask some of the students about their parents’ job.
- Then I raise the question “why do your parents work?” or
“Why do your parents work?”
- Then I will brainstorm students’ ideas on the board.
- After that I will show them the video clip about “Why do
people need job?”
