The lesson stood out for its integration of communicative English through the SIOP model, combined with visual and movement-based activities, helping students develop life skills while naturally learning a foreign language.

At the “Situation-solving Workshop”, groups confidently role-played and addressed real-life situations at school, such as helping a friend get back on their feet or gently patting a friend’s back to comfort them when they burst into tears. Through these activities, students learned that friendliness must be demonstrated through concrete everyday actions.
