The lesson, minute by minute · 課堂流程
Review last week's assignment. Ask 2–3 students to share. Correct one common error and celebrate one strong example.
Teach 5–10 target words. Always include: meaning, Chinese equivalent when useful, example, synonym, antonym, and/or word family.
Future Forecast: students predict classmates' futures, then create a ridiculous '2030 news report.'
Each student produces something before leaving: a sentence, answer, mini-story, explanation, role-play, or spoken response. Keep it quick and visible.

Activities you can read straight off this page, written to fit the blocks above.
可以直接照著這一頁上的活動,對應上面每一段課堂流程。
Chinese says 明天我去台北 and the listener works out the rest. English asks you to declare when you decided. Teach it as a timeline of the decision, not of the event.
中文說「明天我去台北」,其餘靠聽的人自己判斷。英文要求你交代「什麼時候決定的」。把它教成「決定的時間軸」,不是「事件的時間軸」。
Dom's activity. Each student draws a classmate's name and writes three predictions with will. Kind predictions only — the rule keeps it funny instead of sharp.
Dom 的活動。每個學生抽一位同學的名字,用 will 寫三個預測。只准寫善意的預測——這條規則讓它保持好笑,不會變刻薄。
Dom's homework asks for three of each, so sort before writing. Read each sentence and decide which of the three it is — the form follows once the category is clear.
Dom 的作業三種各要三句,所以先分類再寫。唸出句子,判斷它屬於哪一種——類別清楚了,形式自己就出來了。
Three sentences about tomorrow, one in each form. Same day, three different reasons for choosing.
寫三句關於明天的話,三種形式各一句。同一天,三個不同的選擇理由。
Prep · 備課
No preparation needed. Chinese marks the future with a time word and leaves the verb alone — 明天我去台北. English has three different futures and choosing between them is the whole week. Teach the choice as a question about when the decision was made.
不必備課。中文用時間詞標記未來,動詞不動——「明天我去台北」。英文有三種未來式,這週的全部就是怎麼選。把選擇教成一個問題:這個決定是什麼時候做的?

Next-week routine下週例行
Next Saturday: review this homework first, then move into Week 29.
Teacher principle: Review → Retrieve → Learn → Use → Challenge → Homework. Every week runs on the same routine, so the routine can be predictable and the learning can be creative.
