        -Good morning students and welcome dear teachers!

2. THE ORGANIZATION OF THE LESSON

- Students, you will work in groups today. So, I’d like you to split up into groups of four. We will have three groups: Group A, Group B and Group C.

Look at the whiteboard, there are ground rules for group work, please pay attention to them while working together.

3. DEFINING THE AIMS OF THE lesson

Today we are going to learn about healthy eating, we will discuss tips for healthy eating habits, we will read about the importance of reading food labels on the packaged products and we will watch a video about of fibre foods in our daily diet. Also, we are going to do some project work.

Although, we are going to work in groups today, I will evaluate every student individually at the end of the lesson. So, please be active in group discussions and project work.

We will start with vocabulary warm-up.

4. Vocabulary warm-up

-Students, please, look at the whiteboard and think which of these food products are beneficial to our body and which are not. What made you think so? Prove your point.

-Your next task will be to find the hidden sentences by scanning QR codes and then discuss them in groups. Think about your own tips for building up healthy eating habits.

-Do you and your group agree or disagree with these ideas or are you unsure? For what reasons?
