                                         Plan of the lesson

I.Greeting. Organizational moment. Theme/aim.

T: Good morning! How are you? I hope, you are OK! Tell me please, what things are important in our life, I mean without what components a person can’t live. (air, food, water)

So today we are going to speak about one of these components - food. At our lesson we’ll discuss problems of fast food and healthy eating. You’ll do some exercises, practice in reading and speaking, practice in using Active and Passive Voice.

II.The main part of the lesson.

1.Warming-up. Proverbs.

T: Do you know any proverbs about food?

-Hungry as a hunter.

-Eat at pleasure, drink with measure.

-Appetite comes with eating.

-Tastes differ.

-An apple a day, keeps a doctor away.

-Forbidden fruit is sweet.

T: But the motto of our lesson is another proverb: -Do you eat to live or live to eat? Eating is always a decision, nobody forces your hand to pick up food and put it into your mouth.    How do you understand them?

It depends on you, what to eat, what is bad or good for your body, what can damage or help your body.

2.Brainstorming. Oral practice.

T: And now tell me please, what is your favourite food? What would you like to try or have a weakness for? What do you hate or would never try? Make your own sentences.

3. Writing. Vocabulary.

T: But now write a list of your 8 favourite foods in order of importance: more and less important for you.

T: Read your lists. What food is more common for all of you? Do you have fast foods in your list?

What fast foods do you know: hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza, chocolate bars, chips, cookies, crisps and so on.

4. Oral practice. 

T: Let’s do Ex.1, p.52 (PB)  Which fast foods are the most popular with teenagers? How often do you eat them? (in your country).

5. Teacher’s word. Presentation.

  T: Do you know that Americans have an obsession to be fit and healthy. They put a lot of effort to prevent illnesses. They regularly see specialists, take vitamins, practice sports, and keep to a healthy, low-fat diet. But there are more overweight people in the US than anywhere else.  It’s not surprising since they are constantly tempted by hot dogs, hamburgers….

  Fast food is not the same in every country. Fast food companies often change their menu to suit tastes in different countries, using Mc Donald’s as an example:

-in Japan they have an Ebi Filet-0 (shrimp burger) and green tea-flavoured milkshakes;

-in parts of Canada there are Mc Lobster sandwiches;

- in Chile you can dress your burger with avocado paste.

6. Reading. Ex 2, p.52 (PB)
