Always the beginning of a class is using a proverb what I call the proper off the day.

And that is usually a a saying that I sometimes pick up from textbooks or other sources.

And I want to start the class with that because I want them to think, start thinking, but their brains and gear.

So what I do is I write it on the board, let them look at it for a while, then start asking questions.

Okay, What do you think about this statement?

Doesn't make any sense to you.

Do you agree?

Disagree?

Why?

Why not?

And then I start kind of a conversation, mostly asking them to give me their opinions.

I value their opinions very much, and I always tell them that their their opinions are very important.

Basically, what I want them is to use English, okay?

And and use it in a way that it makes.

It's meaningful to them.

And it's also interesting.

They like to give their opinions and many of times way.

Teachers don't give our students a chance to voice their opinions, So I think this is a good way off having them voice their opinions at the same time, make a new inventory of their values.

Eso I feel that it is very important for them to do that to you and not only by expressing them themselves, but also by listening to other students.

Give their own opinions s o A.

For the first five or 10 minutes, I have my students engaged in revaluing okay their own moors and values on at the same time putting their brains in gear.

So later on, after five or 10 minutes, they are ready to start the glass.

It's much more easier for me to get them and focus in in whatever I wanna teach him later on, once I've done that activity.
