In this entry I will publish a set
of activities that will be related with FOOD.
While planning all the tasks I have tried to take into account as much skills
as possible. In this way, students will develop their productive skills
(speaking and writing) as well as their receptive skills (reading and listening).
However, it is necessary to bear in
mind that young learners are not mature enough to write and read. For this
reason, they just can trace words. Furthermore, even if they start reading in
their mother tongue, pupils can’t in the foreign language. Thus, the teacher
will read for them.
1- Do you like broccoli ice-cream?
- Do you like....?
- Yes I like.../No i don't like...
- I like...
- Yummy!
- Yuck!
The teacher can use this tool as a
warm-up activity to start the unit.
2- The blindfold game
The teacher will buy a huge variety
of food and he/she will cut it into small pieces or cubes. A blindfolded student
will pick up one piece of food and he/she will have to make a guess. Moreover,
the kid will have to point out if he/she likes it or not (he/she will have to
use different chunks of language).
3- The bingo game
The purpose of this activity is to
review the FOOD vocabulary.
The teacher will print out different
bingo cards for each child. In this way, students will place pennies or something
similar on the called image if it’s on their card. When a pupil marks all the
images he/she must call out BINGO! The teacher will be the caller. Thus, he/she
will be in charge of calling out the different words. Once a student has won
the game, he/she will swap places with the teacher. The student becomes the
caller.
