| 1 | Introduction to Vocabulary | 5 mins | Introduce the concept of vocabulary acquisition and importance. Discuss why having a rich vocabulary is essential for comprehension and communication. |
| 2 | Presenting New Words | 10 mins | Introduce 5-6 new vocabulary words. Write them on the board along with definitions and example sentences. Explain their meanings in context. |
| 3 | Contextual Practice | 10 mins | Provide students with sentences missing the new vocabulary words. Have them work in pairs to discuss and fill in the blanks using context clues. |

Assign a vocabulary worksheet where students must use each of the new words in original sentences at home. Collect the homework in the next class without individual presentations to avoid peer pressure.
