Learning Objectives Warming Up “If” Imagination Game. If the dog wears sunglasses, . If pizzas could fly, . If the tree could speak, . What MIGHT happen IF? Today, we’ll create fun chain stories using “IF”! Know your tasks Here are the steps. Write the “if” sentence. Pick & Continue Put all the “If” papers in a box. The first student picks one and reads it aloud. Others take turns adding new “if” sentences logically. Chain Linking Keep adding sentences one by one. Stop when the story feels complete (at least 5 sentences). Share your story. Carry out the tasks 4a Work in groups. Each student writes one sentence beginning with “If…” on their own piece of paper. For example: If it doesn’t rain tomorrow, we’ll go for a picnic. Language Support: “Remember: If + present tense, will + verb.” “If [present situation], [future result].” “If aliens visit our school, the students will take photos.” 4b Put all the pieces of paper into a box or jar. The first person picks one and reads it aloud. Others then add “if” sentences to continue the story. For example: If everyone is excited, we’ll play some fun games. If we go for a picnic, everyone will be excited. Language Support: “If [previous result], [new result].” Model: Student A: “If the students take photos, they will share them.” Student B: “If they share them, news reporters will come.” 4c Take turns to add sentences until the story ends naturally. Each story should include at least five sentences. Rule: Stories need 5+ sentences. Example: “If reporters come, the story will reach everywhere.” “If it reaches everywhere ” Share your work 4d When a story ends, pick another piece of paper. Take turns to tell the next story. If robots teach our class, they’ll make learning fun. If learning is fun, students will want to know more. If students want to know more, they’ll create amazing things. If they create amazing things, the future will be better! If there is enough time, please change groups. If we find a magic book in the library, we will open it. If we open it, colorful lights will shine out. If the lights shine, we will smile in surprise. If we smile, the book will tell us a wonderful story. If we hear the story, we will learn more than ever before. If a dog with wings comes to our classroom, we’ll be very surprised. If we are surprised, we’ll take pictures with our phones. If we take pictures, the dog will act like a movie star. If it acts like a star, we’ll make a poster for it. If we make a poster, the whole school will come to see our flying friend!
