Activity 1: Work in pairs. Talk about the uses of these inventions. Use the expressions below to help you.

a. Objective: To introduce more ideas and expressions for the main speaking task.

b. Content: Students skim a list of inventions, learn useful expressions, and practice asking/answering in pairs.

c. Product: Students can fluently ask and answer about the uses of different inventions using target expressions.

d. Organization:

Activity 2: Work in groups. Talk more about one of the inventions in 1. Use the outline below to help you prepare a presentation. 

a. Objective: To help Ss brainstorm more ideas and logically structure their main speaking task.

b. Content: Students choose an invention, use the suggested outline to take notes and prepare for a presentation.

c. Product: A set of well-organized notes based on the outline (Introduction, Development, Conclusion).

d. Organization:

4. APPLICATION

a. Objective: To help students creatively apply the presentation skills and vocabulary learned into a real-life, engaging context.

b. Content: Students complete a take-home task called "Shark Tank: Pitch Your Crazy Invention!".

c. Product: A 1-to-2 minute creative video recorded by the students.

d. Organization:

Step 1: Teacher assigns learning tasks

- Teacher introduces the homework project: "Shark Tank: Pitch Your Crazy Invention!"

- Task requirements:

+ Imagine you are an inventor looking for investments. Invent a completely new, fictional, or "crazy" device (e.g., a machine that translates dog barks into English, a pen that does your homework, flying shoes).

+ Use the outline learned in Activity 2 (Intro, Development, Conclusion) to write a pitch.

+ Record a 1-to-2 minute video presenting your invention to the "sharks" (the teacher and classmates). You can draw a picture or make a cardboard model of your invention to show in the video.

Step 2: Students perform learning tasks

- To visualize their idea, Ss integrate generative AI tools (e.g., DALL-E, Bing Image Creator) on computers to generate a visual prototype of their invention.

- To present the pitch, Ss express themselves by recording and editing a digital video pitch using video editing software (e.g., CapCut).

- Ss share the final digital video pitch on the class's shared online platform (e.g., Padlet, Google Classroom).

Step 3: Reporting and Discussion

- The class will watch the top 3 best videos, and the teacher will act as the "Shark" to decide if they get the "investment".

Step 4: Evaluation

- Teacher ensures everyone understands the project.

- Teacher summarizes the lesson and assigns additional homework.

[6.2.NC1a]: Develop customized AI applications to solve specific problems.

[3.1.NC1b]: Identify ways to express oneself through the creation of digital content.

[2.2.NC1a]: Share data, information, and digital content through a variety of appropriate digital tools.

* HOMEWORK

- Review the vocabulary and target expressions to talk about uses of inventions.

- Complete the Application video project ("Shark Tank Pitch") and submit it by the deadline.

- Prepare for the next lesson: Lesson 5 - Listening.
