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.
Grammar CSI: students become detectives and hunt for real English examples in the movie.
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 detective activity, with the evidence list and the week each structure came from. Teams score one point per find and two if they can say why the speaker chose it. Send them back to the week if they are stuck.
Dom 的偵探活動,附上證據清單與每個結構出自第幾週。找到一個得一分,能說出「說話的人為什麼這樣選」得兩分。卡住的時候,請他們回去看那一週。
The two-point half of the game, and the part that turns labelling into understanding. Every structure is a decision about what the speaker wants to put first, hide, or soften.
遊戲裡兩分的那一半,也是把「貼標籤」變成「懂」的關鍵。每一個結構都是一個決定:說話的人想把什麼放前面、藏起來,或講得軟一點。
The most practical thing in the whole week. Not grammar labels — five lines short enough to remember and general enough to reuse next Monday.
整週最實用的一件事。不是文法標籤,而是五句夠短、夠通用、下禮拜一就能用出來的話。
One line from the film, labelled, with the reason. The reason is what is being marked.
寫一句電影台詞、貼上標籤、附上理由。評分看的是理由。
Prep · 備課
No preparation needed. This is the year's grammar review disguised as a hunt, so bring the checklist and let the film do the teaching. Dom's own note is the framing to keep: real English comes first, the label comes second.
不必備課。這是偽裝成尋寶的年度文法總複習,帶著清單進教室,讓電影去教。Dom 自己寫的定位要守住:先有真實的英文,文法標籤是後來才貼上去的。
Optional video / media plug-in影片與媒體(選用)
Optional: replay short dialogue scenes and pause to label structures.

Next-week routine下週例行
Next Saturday: review this homework first, then move into Week 44.
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.
