Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (3-5 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students with the subject of breakfast foods and popular breakfasts from around the globe.

I will use the OHP to show two pictures of my personal breakfasts plates. I will elicit what meal they think this is and through a story of my favorite meal of the day. I will ask them to try and identify some of the items as a WC and lead into the next slide of popular, individual breakfast foods and beverages. What do you think this is? Is it a meal? Which meal? Where do you think each one of these is from? What are some of the foods you see?
