Is your class tired… or truly burned out? This engaging lesson helps students explore the fine line between laziness and burnout while practicing reading comprehension, vocabulary in context, critical thinking, and discussion skills.
Through matching games, comprehension tables, timelines, and opinion debates, learners discover:
- The six telltale signs of burnout and how they differ from laziness.
- The five stages of burnout — from the honeymoon phase to habitual burnout.
- How burnout develops gradually and why it’s often misunderstood.
Students not only sharpen their language skills, but also reflect on their own experiences and strategies for managing stress. With ready-to-use exercises, answer keys, and lively discussion prompts, this lesson is a perfect mix of mental health awareness and language learning.
