📱 Digital Detox
Students read an original article about screen addiction featuring Sana Mirza's phone tracking experiment, neuroscientist Dr. Henrik Larsen's brain research, digital detox retreats, and technology writer Priya Nair's 'mindful usage' approach. Gerunds and infinitives are embedded naturally throughout — including verbs that change meaning (stop, remember, forget, try, regret). The interactive game presents 10 sentences where students choose between gerund and infinitive forms, testing both basic rules and meaning-changing verbs.
Lesson Plan
- 3 warm-up questions about screen time
Key Vocabulary
Grammar Points
- Gerund only: enjoy, avoid, mind, keep, finish, suggest, admit, deny, consider, risk
- Infinitive only: decide, want, need, hope, expect, agree, refuse, offer, promise, learn
- Both same meaning: start, begin, continue, like, love, hate, prefer
- Meaning change: stop doing (quit) vs stop to do (pause); remember doing (recall) vs remember to do (don't forget)
- Memory trick: gerund = looking back; infinitive = looking forward
