PROCEDURE

І. INTRODUCTION

1. GREETING

Good morning, my dear boys and girls. I’m glad to see you today. How are you? I think you are fine. Let’ start our lesson. (To organize the class)

2. AIMS 

     Today we are going to speak about traditional English food. We’ll get to learn what English people usually eat in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening. We’ll recollect countable and uncountable nouns.

     So we’ll speak English, repeat and learn words, work with grammar, play and do a lot of interesting activities. By the end of the lesson you’ll be able to tell what the British usually eat and what you like and dislike. I suppose you’ll enjoy the lesson. Let’s start!

3. WARMING-UP

    At the beginning of our lesson we’ll learn the rhyme. Now repeat the rhyme after me:

                                  

  

Let’s review topic vocabulary. I pack my basket for England. What can I put in my basket? Look at the board. You can see some food and drinks. Rise you hand if you know the word.

                 II. THE MAIN PART OF THE LESSON

1.  Listening and watching.

 Do you like watching films? Let’s watch a film about traditional English food.

 (Food in Britain (3_8ESL video). webm)

а) pre-listening activity.

We start watching the film. But before we watch it’s important to know if you are ready to do it. Look at the screen and repeat after me.

                   

                    Pasta                                                        Vegetables   

       

                 

                 

                 Milk and cereal                                                          Bacon and eggs

        

                       Marmalade                                                        Fish and chips

            

After watching you have to name food you’ve seen.

                         

б) listening and watching

.

And now name as many items of food as you can.

Pupils watch the film once more.

в) post-listening activity.

. Pupils fill the information gaps at the board.

Meal	What time?	Where?	Which food?
breakfast	8-9 o’clock a.m.	at home	Milk and cereal, toast, jam or marmalade, fruit juice, tea or coffee, bacon and egg
lunch	12 o’clock	outside, in the cafe	A sandwich, a snack, fish and chips
dinner	6-7 o’clock p.m.	at home, in the restaurant	Meat or fish, vegetables, pizza, pasta

               

What traditional English food do you know now?

2. Reading.

     а) pre-reading activity

 It’s time to read the text English meals on page 65. (A. Nesvit 5). But before we read the text it’s important to know if you are ready to do it. Look at the screen and translate if you know the word.

                Packed lunch                                                        a roll

                       

                      a cup                                                                                    a plate

        

  б) reading

Pupils are divided into three groups and read a part of the text. In some minutes pupils read completed text aloud.

.

   в) post-reading activity

   Let’s do exercise 2, р.65-66. Choose right or wrong sentences, if you agree rise the green card. If you disagree rise the red one.

3. Exercises

   And now let’s have a short rest and do some exercises. Look at the board, watch video  “Head and Shoulders  Song”  (www.muffinsongs.com ) and do exercises. (To train physical abilities of pupils)

  4. Grammar review.  Countable and uncountable nouns.

    Let’s recollect, what nouns are countable and what nouns are uncountable.

·       If you can count things they are countable nouns: one apple, two apples, and three apples.

·       If you can’t count things they are uncountable nouns: cheese, meat, water, milk.

Let’s play a game “Grammar boxes”. I have two boxes. This one is for countable nouns and another one is for uncountable nouns. At the beginning of the lesson you’ve got flashcards with food. Take the cards and put it in the correct box.

I think you are ready to do exercise 12 p. 43 in your workbook.

5. Group work.  Writing and speaking.

You are given the cards. Your task is to fill the gaps and say what you like to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

1.    SUMMARIZING AND MARKING.

  Today you’ve learned about some traditional English food. Don’t you think the getting knowledge can help you in your real life? Maybe one day you’ll travel to Britain.

   Look at your desks. Each of you have got three apples – red, yellow and green one. If you took part in all activities and did everything correct, put a green apple on the tree. If you only helped sometimes and didn’t understand everything, put a yellow apple on the tree. If you didn’t understand and didn’t remember anything, put a red one.
