A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Use the two model conversations and phrase lists on the learner page. The final dialogue prompts are open-ended, with no fixed answer key.
- Read the car-free-square proposal and identify trial conditions and measures before a permanent decision.
- Discuss the training exchange: distinguish fewer errors from proof that training caused them.
- Role-play a final prompt with two phrases, a reason and a qualified conclusion.
Support and extension
Provide view/evidence/concern notes. Extend by stating what additional evidence would change the recommendation.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
