Lesson Plan
Brainstorm a list of foods with the class. See what food words they know. Have them put the food in categories such as fruit, vegetables, meat, etc. Divide students into groups and use either phones or devices and help students visit the Wakelet.
Have the students look at the first activity labeled vocabulary. As a whole class, have them name the fruits on the picture. Ask them if the fruit is together or separate. Get them to understand the difference between separate and together.
Go through the vocabulary with the class. By having the students look at the picture and say the words. Put the students into small groups and have them practice saying the words together. Review the second activity flashcards with the students. The third activity is the spelling activity. Students will listen to the word and try to write it.
Go to the activity labeled "Separate" and review the slides with the students. There are notes on each slide for you to review. Do this as a whole class activity.
Have students get into groups and using their devices, have them review the slide deck again on their own. Encourage them to practice repeating the sentences aloud.
The next activity is labeled "Video Reading" Read through the slide deck with the students and have them repeat after you.
Next, get them in pairs or small groups and have them read through the slides together.
Have students watch the video after completing the reading.Play the video 2 or 3 times for the students.
Have the students do a dication using the dication slides.
Students should complete the google form. This form is made to go to Susan Gaer's account. If you want to see your student results, please ask her to send you a copy of the form so that you can edit it in your account. Email her at sgaer@otan.us
Students should complete a reflection on what they learned in the class by writing a few sentences. Give them the sentence starter: Today I learned...and have them write a sentence or two. In addition, you can ask students how they separate their food at home. Where do you keep your vegetables? Where do you keep your meat? Where do you keep your seafood? Where do you keep your poultry?
In addition, there is an activity on Google that is really fun for the students to do. It is called "Food Fun" Click on the Get Started button and then on the refrigerator to get started.
