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.
Play a short scene twice: first with sound, then muted. Students compare what English tells them that visuals do not.
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。
Dom's activity, with the comparison written out. Play with sound, then muted, then ask this list. The gap between the two viewings is where the English lives.
Dom 的活動,把對照題目寫出來。先有聲播一次、再靜音播一次,然後問這幾題。兩次之間的差距,就是英文存在的地方。
English drops into sarcasm constantly and marks it only with tone. Learners take it literally and miss the joke, or worse, think the speaker meant it. Play one line two ways and the whole class hears it at once.
英文經常說反話,而且只用語氣標記。學習者照字面理解,不是錯過笑點,就是以為對方是認真的。同一句用兩種語氣各唸一次,全班立刻就聽出來了。
Dom's homework asks for eight observations and five expressions. Split them so students know what counts: an observation needs evidence, an expression needs to be reusable outside this film.
Dom 的作業要八個觀察與五個說法。分清楚什麼算數:觀察必須帶證據,說法必須是離開這部片還用得上的。
Write one line from the scene and both readings of it. If they cannot find one, they have not been listening to tone.
寫下戲裡的一句話,以及它的兩種解讀。找不到的話,代表還沒開始聽語氣。
Prep · 備課
No preparation needed. Dom's sound-on then sound-off comparison is the whole lesson, so protect the time for it. What students discover is what English carries that pictures cannot: who has the power, whether someone is joking, and how close the two people are.
不必備課。Dom 設計的「先有聲再靜音」對照就是整堂課,時間要留給它。學生會發現英文承載了畫面給不了的東西:誰有主導權、對方是不是在開玩笑、兩個人有多熟。

Next-week routine下週例行
Next Saturday: review this homework first, then move into Week 38.
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.
