After two weeks of Chuseok recovery, national and school holidays, and just plain old
laziness, I went back to a real lesson. This one is taken from the JLP Resource book page 170 but is easily found on the
internet.
Food Pyramid
- Native Speaker introduces the concept of Korean & North American food. 5 minutes.
- Native Speaker introduces the concept of the Food Pyramid and Healthy nutrition. 5 minutes.
- Students perform Food Pyramid worksheet. 5 minutes.
- Native Speakers goes over Food Pyramid worksheet. 5 minutes.
- Native Speaker performs Where am I activity with the students. 10 minutes.
- Students perform Food Riddle worksheet. 10 minutes.
- Native Speaker performs What am I activity with the students. 10 minutes.
Notes:
- Students knew 80% of the vocabulary used in this lesson. That means the smart student weren't really that challenged.
- This lesson should be more about food and less about nutritional knowledge since the food pyramid presented is outdated and currently there are numerous theories presenting their own healthy eating measurement system.
- The Meat food group should be changed to Protein and to clarify confusing food, like beans and nuts.
