T: Ok, children, well done. Now tell me, how do we call all these in the spaghetti
bowl?

2) T: Great, now you know that the topic of our lesson is food. You know there are
different kinds of food and to eat food we should first buy it, bring to the kitchen and
then we … What do we do with the food?
S: We cook food in the kitchen!
T: Good for you. Let’s see how well you are in the kitchen when you cook food!

Thank you for your answer, you were really active this time.
III. Vocabulary practice.
1) Matching activity (pair work)

T: Well, we all like different food and we put it into different dishes. The food you
cook, the food you buy you always put it in dishes. For example, if we eat soup, we
put it into a bowl, if we have spaghetti, we can eat it from a …?
S: Plate. We eat from a plate.
T: If we drink water, what can we drink it from?
S: We can drink water from a bottle.
T: Yes students, you are ALL right. And now I need you to work in pairs. For this
I’m giving you these cards. There you will see food and drinks on the left, and dishes
on the right. Your task is to match them and see WHERE DO WE EAT FROM AND
WHERE DO WE DRINK FROM? I give you a couple of minutes to match them.
You may start!

A glass of water
A can of juice
A cup of soup
A jar of spaghetti
A box of chocolate
A bar of sweets
A plate of jam
A bowl of coffee
A carton of cola
A bottle of milk

2) Vocabulary game
T: Well, students you have worked well with the words and phrases and we shall
relax a little bit. It is a game and it is called “Food expert”. Ok, who would like to
3
try their luck? Then let’s start. I will read you the description and you will have to
guess what food or drink this is.
(It’s got cheese, tomatoes and sauce on top of it) Pizza
(It is white, you make strawberry shake with it) Milk
(It is sweet and brown, in a box or there is a bar of it) Chocolate
(You can drink a lot of this and it is good for your health) Water
(They are very sweet and can be different colours) Sweets
(It’s orange and long, rabbits usually like it) Carrots
(It is round, green, and white and you cook soup or salad with it) Cabbage
(They are round, red and juicy, you cook sauce for the pizza with them) Tomatoes
So, the food expert of today’s lesson is __________________ and you get this
beautiful award, a badge that says you are a “Food expert”. Anyway, you were all
good at playing this game, but ____________ knows a little bit more!

IV. Homework checking

1) Text discussion
T: Well, students, your homework for today was to read the text in Student’s
Book from page 54. I hope you all read it. Open the Student’s books, please. So,
there is a boy, Marco from Italy and he is talking about his favourite food. Can
anyone tell me what is Marco’s favourite food?
S: Marco’s favourite food is pizza and spaghetti.
T: Ok, that is correct. Let’s see what other food and drinks you can remember
from the text.
S: Meat, rice, eggs, fruit, chicken, cola, water.
2) Reading activity.
T: Exactly, that is true. Now I would like to know how often does Marco eat?
For this, you will have to prove it with the sentences from the text and read it
aloud.

week)
- How often does he eat spaghetti? (1
plate every day)
- Does he eat meat? (Not much)

V. Group work (Picking cards)

T: There is so much food and drinks today. Food is everywhere and there is so much
food for Marco, too. He eats a lot of food. But is all food good for him, for his health?
What if it can make him fat? Which food is healthy and which food is unhealthy?
Let’s help Marco choose healthy food that cannot make him fat!
I will split you up into two groups for this task. Here you see that I have a set of cards
with healthy and unhealthy food. Group 1, you choose healthy food, and group 2 you
choose unhealthy food. Students from the last desks may come closer to the cards.

T: So, children the time is up and you must show us what you have got. I need one
speaker from group #1 to tell us food is healthy?
(The student informs the class about the food)
T: May be there is some food left?
T: Ok, and the second speaker from group #2, would like to present? What food is
unhealthy?
(The student informs the class about the food)
T: May be there is some food left?

(If there are any food items left other students help to complete the task)
T: Thank you all, for being active. This group gets apples and this group gets
sweets!

VI. Listening
T: Well, students, let’s help Marco eat more healthy food and not get fat. For this you
will listen to a recording from SB on p. 55, open your books and the ex is 4a.

After you listen you need to Tick healthy food and Cross unhealthy food on the food
poster in ex. 4a

VII. Relaxation period.

T: Are you tired, children? Let’s play a game. I hope you will have fun!
Stand up first, now, you need to listen to me very attentively. I will name different

6
kinds of food and you need to clap one, but just one time when you hear HEALTHY
FOOD or DRINK. Do you understand? Let’s begin!

VIII. Grammar presentation

We have talked a lot about food today. We know what food is unhealthy and food is
healthy. But haven’t counted it yet. Let’s try to do it! Can we say
- 1 cabbage, 2 cabbages…
- 1 carrot, 2 carrots…?
So, can we count them? Yes, we can. We say How many cabbages are there?
Not many

T: Can we say
- 1water, 2 waters…
- 1 cheese, two cheeses…?
No, we can’t. We cannot count them. We say How much cheese is there?
Not much.
But we can say A lot for cabbages and for
cheese.
Now, children we will watch a short video.
There is a dialogue about a picnic and food
that people take for the picnic.

Watching a video

(Stopping the video)

T: From here you need to make questions with
how many or how much.
(Stopping the video)
T: And from here you will have to answer not
many, not much or a lot.
