First Conditional and Connectors: Grammar Flowcharts and Structures

Section role: supports the Logic and Structure Workshop section while the teacher guides the class from the group challenge into formal grammatical theory. Slide outline: (1) Title — 'Grammar Workshop: Logic, Conditions, and Results'; (2) From Challenge to Theory — linking student discoveries from the Chain Reaction Lab to formal rules; (3) First Conditional Formula — breaking down 'If + Present Simple, Will + Base Verb' with a focus on certainty; (4) Common Pitfalls — warning against 'will' in the 'if' clause using a side-by-side correct vs incorrect example; (5) Connector Map: Cause vs Effect — visual flowchart showing how ideas link logically; (6) Because vs Because of — comparative layout detailing the Subject + Verb rule versus the Noun Phrase rule; (7) Formal Transitions — introducing 'Therefore' and 'Consequently' with punctuation rules (semicolons and periods); (8) Applied Practice — an interactive slide featuring incomplete sentences for whole-class voting; (9) Closing slide — 'How do your connectors change when you switch from a noun to a full sentence?' — handing control back to the teacher for individual practice in the next section.
