Procedure (34-44 minutes)
T will do the 1a activity with the students. Ss will look at the photos that are on the presentation that T has prepared and guess the countries that the pictures belong to, and have a general discussion about the picture itself, generating small sentences like "This food is Japanese, I love Japanese food." etc. T will also elicit the word "dish" while discussing, often using the word to talk about food.
Before Reading the text, T elicits some crucial vocabulary that Ss might have trouble understanding using the same PPT that T has prepared.
T asks students to do the T/F activity individually. These questions are aimed to check if Ss has understood the text.
T does activity 2, matching the statements to the countries that it belongs to. T will ask students to do this activity alone but the checking on the activity will be done as a W/C. T will demo the first question as to give an idea of what to do to students. After Ss do it alone and give their answers, T will ask them to justify their answers using the information that they have gathered from the text. W/C F/B
T will ask open ended questions for students to discuss in groups of 2. These questions will be "What is your favourite food?", "What food do you like or dislike?". Additionally, T will ask if the students would be interested in eating the food mentioned in the reading text.
