Ask: Which of these have you seen or used before? Learners raise hands and name the platforms they recognize	EXPLORING FIVE MAJOR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS 1Using the computer and projector, open each platform's website one by one: Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Twitter, and Tumblr. For each, point to the main features on screen and explain: Facebook connects friends and family; LinkedIn connects professionals for job networking; WhatsApp sends messages via the internet; Twitter shares short posts called tweets; Tumblr hosts blogs and reblogged content. Learners write the platform name and one use in their exercise books 2Distribute the Textbook and ask learners to read the section on Social Networking sites (pages provided by teacher). Learners identify and list three purposes for social media in their books: staying in touch, sharing information, and finding job opportunities. Ask a volunteer to read their list aloud and check accuracy against the textbook 3Struggling learners: work with a partner to complete the list using the textbook as a guide; Fast finishers: research and write one additional use for each platform.	1Computer/Laptop 2Projector 3Textbook 4Internet connection	1Display four scenario cards on the projector: (1) Ama wants to find a new job in Accra; (2) Kwame wants to send a quick message to his friend Yaw; (3) Abena wants to share family photos; (4) Kofi wants to read short news updates. Learners call out which platform suits each scenario and explain why 2Learners work in pairs to create a simple comparison chart in their books: two columns with platform name and main purpose.
