What do I have?
Use the flashcards to elicit the vocabulary for the game.
Hold up one card so that the class can only see the back of it.
Ask What do I have? for children to make guesses.
Children ask Is it...? to find out what the flashcard is. If they name the food within three guesses, they get one point. If
they don’t, you get one point. Keep score on the board.
When the card has been guessed correctly, or the children have used all three guesses, put the card on the board. Put
the flashcards back together and shuffle them.
Hold up a second card and repeat the procedure.
Continue until all the cards are on the board.
Show us how you feel!
Ask children to say the chant again. When they hear the name of a food they like, they rub their stomachs. When they
hear the name of a food they don’t like, they shake their heads.
Listen and read. (Exercise 3)
Use Story poster 12 to present the story. Ask children what foods they see in the pictures.
Talk about each frame with the class. Ask Where is the family? What’s happening? Encourage predictions from

Story time: A reader of your choice
Traditionally people only ate two meals on Sunday: breakfast and supper. Supper is like dinner, but there is more
food, and it is eaten in the afternoon, not evening. Some people still follow this tradition, but many do not. Many
families also eat meals in restaurants or they order take out. People can pick up take out food and bring it home, or
sometimes it is delivered by a restaurant.

Play Bingo with the food words children have learned so far in the course.
Ask the children to draw a grid, three by three (or three by two) squares. In each of the squares, they write a different
food word.
Call out words from the vocabulary set in any order. Keep a record of the words as you say them, so that you don’t
say the same word twice. The children cross off the words in their grids as they hear them. The first child to complete
a line of three shouts Bingo!
If children have trouble remembering enough words, show them flashcards 79–85 and 103–107 without saying the
words.
