1. Greeting and giving the  theme and main aims of our event.

•  Good afternoon dear students. I am glad to see you today. Hope you are ready to work productively today!

Please, answer on my questions:

- What can you live without? What is so important for all people? Yes, it`s right. It`s food. Without food, a person can not live.

- Do you know such wordcombinations as “healthy food” and “unhealthy or junky food”?

 - How do you understand them?

Perhaps each of you understands that only a person who has good health, easily overcomes difficulties and is able to work efficiently, have a rest. And to ensure good health, you have to learn to eat properly and eat only healthy food.

I propose you to divide into two groups. Your task is to write as many words as you remember on the theme “Food’.

Please, look at these two pictures.

• What food would you like to eat( from picture 1 or 2)?
• Let`s name food which we see on the pictures.

I propose you to meet with these two boys:

As you understood, this boy is Japanese. Let`s give  name for him!

And meet American boy. Choose name for him!

• Why do I show you these photos?
• Imagine these boys are in the age of 70.  How will they look like?

You know Japanese has the longest life expectancy. Unfortunately, Americans can live to such age or not…. Why?
