Introduction to the Lesson

Good Morning, Class! 🌞

Today, we are going to embark on an exciting adventure in the world of English! Before we dive into our lesson, I have a special surprise for you all—a Magical Mystery Box! 🎉

What’s Inside the Mystery Box?

I want you to think about what could be inside our box. Here are some hints:

• It’s colorful.
• It can tell a story.
• It helps us learn new words.

Activity

1. Gather Around: Have the students gather in a circle around the Mystery Box.
2. Ask Questions: Let the students guess what could be inside the box. Encourage them to use their imagination and think about different items that can be related to English, such as books, toys with letters, or any colorful pictures.
3. Reveal the Surprise: After a few guesses, dramatically open the box to reveal colorful storybooks!

Discussion

• Talk about the Books: Encourage students to share what they see.
• Story Time: Pick one book and read a short, engaging story from it.
• Word Hunt: As you read, pause and ask students to identify any new or fun words they hear.

Conclusion

Wrap Up: After the story, ask each student to share one thing they learned from the book.
