Notes

🎮 Lesson 2: “Tech Rules: Must or Mustn’t?”
🧊 1. Warmer (10–15 min) — “Computer Rules: Right or Wrong?”
Reconnect with previous lesson + introduce idea of rules.
How:
Show funny or relatable situations:


Someone eating near a computer


Someone typing carefully


Someone pulling cables


Ask:


“Is this good or bad?”


Students answer:


“Good!” / “Bad!”


👉 Don’t introduce must/mustn’t yet—just concept of rules.

📚 2. Presentation (15–20 min) — Introduce “Must / Mustn’t”
Now connect rules to language.
Write examples:


“You must be careful.”


“You mustn’t eat near the computer.”


Explain simply:


must = important / rule ✅


mustn’t = not allowed ❌


Use clear examples with gestures:


👍 “You must clean the keyboard.”


👎 “You mustn’t hit the screen.”


Concept check questions:


“Is it OK?” (for mustn’t → NO)


“Is it important?” (for must → YES)



🎯 3. Practice (20–25 min) — Game: “Must or Mustn’t Challenge”
How it works:
Show situations (images or act them out):


Students hold up:


✅ “MUST”


❌ “MUSTN’T”




Gamification:


Teams get points


Add speed rounds


Example prompts:


“Eat near computer” → MUSTN’T


“Use keyboard carefully” → MUST


“Throw the mouse” → MUSTN’T


👉 This is simple but very effective.

🧠 4. Practice 2 (15–20 min) — “Fix the Rules” Game
Give incorrect sentences:


“You must eat near the computer.” ❌


“You mustn’t clean the screen.” ❌


Students correct:


“You mustn’t eat…”


“You must clean…”


👉 Great for deeper understanding.

🚀 5. Production (25–30 min) — Main Game: “Create Computer Rules Poster”
🎨 Task:
In groups, students create a “Computer Lab Rules” poster
They must write:


At least 3 MUST rules


At least 3 MUSTN’T rules


Example:


You must use the keyboard carefully


You mustn’t eat near the computer



🎤 Presentation:
Each group presents:


“You must…”


“You mustn’t…”



🏆 Gamification:
Give points for:


Correct grammar


Clear speaking


Creativity (drawings/colors)


Optional fun categories:


“Most Creative”


“Best English”


“Funniest Rule”



🏁 6. Closing (5–10 min) — “Teacher Says” (like Simon Says)
Say:


“You must stand up” → students do it


“You mustn’t stand up” → students DON’T move


If they move incorrectly → out (or lose points)
👉 Super fun and reinforces meaning physically.

💡 Why this lesson works


Builds directly from computer vocabulary


Clear real-life context (rules in lab)


Repetition without boredom


Strong speaking + interaction



🔥 Pro tip
Keep the same teams and points system from the first lesson.
It creates:


continuity


motivation


a “game world” feeling



If you want, I can:


Make a printable “Must/Mustn’t” worksheet


Give you slides + pictures


Simplify it for lower-level students


Just tell me 👍
