CONTEXT: My class is [NEWCOMER/INTERMEDIATE] multilingual learners whose home language is [HOME_LANGUAGE]. Target academic topic: [CONTENT_TOPIC]. Lesson length: [MINUTES]. TASK: 1. Generate 8 true cognates and 4 false friends connecting [HOME_LANGUAGE] to the English academic vocabulary for the topic. 2. Write a 3-phase mini-lesson: activate prior knowledge, guided cognate sorting, output task. 3. Provide a sentence frame at three proficiency tiers for the output task. 4. Add one quick formative check that does not rely on heavy English production. CONSTRAINTS: Honor the home language as an asset, never as deficit. Avoid idioms in instructions.
