Fruits or Vegetables?
Have the class divided into 4-5 groups/pairs (depending on the class size). Each group will receive a set
of cards with pictures of different types of fruits and vegetables, and a table with separate columns for
fruits and vegetables. Students will work with their groups to complete the name of fruits and vegetables
on each card (Cloze exercise) and then stick the cards to the correct category column. The groups receive
the scores according to their correct answers and the time completing the task. The group with the highest
score wins the activity and receive some encouraging award.
Teacher goes around to observe and take note of commonly made mistakes to correct together with the
class at the end of the activity.
Substitution: if there are available devices, students can complete the activity with the online interactive.

corresponding columns of like/don’t like for each vegetable name.
