I will drill and elicit the words from the listening article. Words are ingredients, recipe. I will show them pictures and I will tell them to repeat the words.
I will distribute handouts to the students and have them listen to part of a radio interview about food in Italy. I will give them about five minutes to listen through the first time. Then I will tell them choose the best title for the programme. I will have them work in pairs to complete the task of choosing the best title for the recording complete. They will have some sort of task that they will complete. For the next, I am going to give them about three minutes to complete this exercise with a partner.
I will tell my students to listen the recording once again for more carefully and more details. I will give them about eight minutes to listen again. Then I will tell them read the passage below. Underline the incorrect information and explain what is wrong. I will write on the white board one example from the student's book and they are going to be more clear with their explanation. Then they should complete whole underline the incorrect information and eplanations with a partner, and understanding underline the incorrect information and explanations. They will work in pairs.
Now, they are going to discuss do they agree with Maura that good food is slow food ? And I will ask them why or why not . Then I will come up with a questionnaire, what traditional foods are there in Turkey ? What parts of the country do they come from? They will work in groups and I will give them about ten minutes to answer and discuss and share their answers as a class.
