This is an older lesson, kind of tough for first graders.

Is your MS alread on lesson 8? My school uses the same textbook and we are only halfway through lesson 6. I don't set the pace for the class, my co-teacher does.

I used this little game for about the last 10min of class.
I had each kid order a food and a drink and then they had to answer the question. If they found the broccoli, I gave them a candy, hehe. Working pretty good. Oh yeah, I did go over the different tastes before the game: salty, sweet, bland, tasty, spicy, mild, hot and cold.

Here's a game I made for my grade 1's. It went very well, one of the most successful games I've run actually.
Easily takes up 10 - 20 mins. (I only managed to do most of the first menu, and that took up about 8 - 10 mins)
It's pretty self explanatory, but bug me if you don't understand.

I tried to make a ppt version, but I couldn't get it to work.

I haven't actually been following through with the candy. You may or may not want to edit that part out. I added more jackpots, and it ends up being a lot of candy to give out.

I'm having trouble downloading the doc.

Jimmy, maybe because its pptx? That's a newer version of powerpoint. Check out the bottom section of this page for help: http://tutorial.downloadatoz.com/convert-pptx-to-ppt-video-pdf.html

I'm a real technophobe....I'm just getting the three slides with the menus, how do you get the jackpot etc to come up when you're playing th powerpoint? when I click it just goes straight to the next menu....

It seems to only be working properly in Powerpoint 2007. Love ya, Microsoft.
When I get some time, I'll attempt to edit it and repost it to work in earlier versions.

In the meantime, if you still really want to have a look at it in a working fashion, install this program:

http://download.cnet.com/PowerPoint-Viewer-2007/3000-18483_4-10742145.html

It lets you open any ppt or pptx as a presentation from powerpoint 2007 or earlier. You just won't be able to edit the presentation at all.

I did this lesson this week. The first bit is just a review of terms from their book, and the last part has some new vocabulary and terms. You'll probably have to make some adjustments, but I hope it helps.

Was lesson 7 in my book, taught it a couple weeks ago. Here's my PPT. Pretty self-explanatory and tied directly to my particular book in this case.

Good luck

busangaz · « **Reply #14 on:** September 17, 2010, 02:42:52 pm »

Wow! Excellent ppt from both you guys! Gives me food for thought (pardon the pun).

I like giving students more opportunity for creativity. After going through a few examples, I split the students into groups and had them choose a type of restaurant and make their own menu's. Afterward, they make new dialogues using their menus and demonstrate for the class . . . all of the kids really got into it and some of the menus were amazing. Some come up with some pretty funny foods and everyone has a laugh.

Food worksheet accompanied by powerpoint then secret message worksheet...

The video that accompanies part 1 is posted on youtube as "Food Look-a-Likes"

Here is a lesson about world food.
I showed them the flag, and the kids yelled out the country name. From there I would ask what food is this country famous for. Then they filled out the worksheet (which matches Italy-Italian-Spaghetti, etc.) and practiced the dialog.
At the end we watched the Iron Chef montag http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXqY8EZ21-g

I explained 'secret ingredient' beforehand and in groups, the kids wrote as many foods that they seen as possible. The team with the most foods won. The students love the video and wanted to watch it again.

The worksheet has some seafood on the top from the previous week's lesson. Feel free to change anything and repost. I'm not sure if Australians usually eat kangaroo burger or not, but it makes the kids laugh!

I can't seem to find this "Food Look-a-Likes" video on Youtube. Anyway you can post a link please?

AlexGomm · « **Reply #19 on:** December 04, 2010, 02:21:53 pm »

I fixed the jackpot links and saved it as a 2003 PPT.
My students are super low level and this works amazingly well with them.
Thanks.
