Define “time” in their own words, using examples of how time is measured and experienced in daily life.
Explain “leisure” as a break from work or school, giving at least two examples of leisure activities common in their community.
Define “idleness” as doing nothing when there is something to be done, and distinguish it from genuine rest or leisure.
Differentiate between leisure and idleness by analysing short scenarios and sorting them into the correct category.

1. Through Think-Pair-Share explain the meaning of "time", "leisure" and "idleness".
• Time is the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future. Time is measured in hours, minutes, seconds, past, present, future, etc. It is a duration during which all things happen, or the instance when something happens.
• Leisure: Break from normal work or school in the form of vacation, time for engaging in hobbies and recreational activities.
• Idleness means whiling away time or doing nothing when there is something to be done.
