Abstract

Opening plays a very crucial period in the course of a lesson. Just like other expressions to illustrate the energy it gives, the analogies could be “Love at the first sight”, or, “First impression (of you) is so exciting, the rest is up to you”. Lessons opening, when it is made beneficial to the students, serves as a fire trigger, providing them with strong power at the start, and sustains “eternal flame” till the end of the lesson. This article argues the rationale behind it and presents some ways of creating such lessons opening in the context of English language teaching.
