| 1 | Launch | Grammar — Day 86 | (nothing yet — this is on screen as they come in and settle) | Have Grammar — Day 86 up before they enter. Say nothing about it; it is doing its work by being there. | See it on the way in. Know grammar is next. |
| 2 | Launch | Clauses and commas | “Assalamu alaykum.” | Greet and settle. | Return the greeting. |

| 4 | Launch | Today the questions jump around: subject complement + phrase + objects of preposition. | “Today the questions jump around — subject complement + phrase + objects of preposition. Your first job, before you answer anything, is to notice which one I am asking.” | Say it slowly. This is the actual objective of the day. Note: NAME THE INTERLEAVING. Unannounced mixing feels random to a six-year-old; announced, it is a game they can win. | Listen. |
| 5 | Launch | The questions · Subject Complement — “Does it tell me about the subject?” · Phrase — “Does this group act like one word?” · Objects of Preposition — “Preposition — what?” · I will not tell you which is coming. · Listen for the question, THEN answer. | “Subject Complement: “Does it tell me about the subject?” · Phrase: “Does this group act like one word?” · Objects of Preposition: “Preposition — what?”.

| 7 | I do | I-do example Watch me do one the exact task, modelled — sentence · question · ring it · name it | “NOT between compound subject complements: He was angry and tired.” … “Does it tell me about the subject?” … “tired — the subject complement.” … “Does this group act like one word?” … “between — a phrase.” … “Preposition — what?” … “between — an object of a preposition.” “Two questions. Two answers. One sentence. Your turn.” | One click per move: the sentence · the question · ring the word and name it · hand it over. Do it exactly the way you want them to do it — this is the task they are about to do on their boards, not a different, easier one. Note: Model the DOING, not only the thinking. The ring is the same mark they will make; the wording is the same wording you want back. | Watch. Hands still. |
| — | I do | (board — build the VIP, then leave it up) | (you are narrating each stage as you draw it — see the stages) | Build on the BOARD, not the slide. · Write NOT between compound subject complements: He was angry and tired. · ① Write the question underneath: Does it tell me about the subject? · ② Try it on tired — “tired” — it works · ③ Ring tired and name it: the subject complement Then leave it up for the whole lesson. Note: Walk it one click per step — this is the slide the teacher talks through, not one to flash. Leave the BOARD copy up; the slide can move on once they start, because the same strip is printed at the top of their sheet. Come back to it if anyone stalls. | Watch it being built. It stays there to look at. |
