 LESSON 1


 * __ACTIVITY 1__**

In order to introduce what are we going to talk about we will ask the students to do this worksheet. In this worksheet they have to identify which food belongs to each pyramid group. With this activity we will be able to know which previous ideas students have about food and its categories. Moreover, we will be introducing the most important idea of our teaching unit: knowing how to classify the food to be able to eat in a healthy way.

**__DISCUSSION__** We will discuss what we consider to be healthy and non-healthy food. We will write down some important ideas that may appear. (10 minutes)

**__VIDEO__** We will see a video related to the importance of eating different food and having a healthy way of life. (10 minutes) []

**__AGREEMENT__** To end up the class we will create an agreement with the ideas that have appeared from the discussion and the video. With this agreement we will fix the ideas of the class and we will be preparing the activity that will be the beginning of the next class. 

__ LESSON 2 __

__**ACTIVITY 3**__

In groups of five they will have to work on the vocabulary of the food of the different groups. Each member of the group will be in charge of one of the food groups. They will have 7-8 minutes to fulfill the worksheet. When all the group has finished they will have to interchange the worksheets between the group mates and correct them (we will give them the solutions) (5 minutes). To end the activity each person has to explain to the groups which are the corrections that has made and which are the different words that appear in the worksheet (7-8 minutes) So, with this activity, we will have worked on the vocabulary of the different groups and we will have given our student resources to be able to continue with the activities.

**__COMPARISON 1__** We will compare the explanation we will have given them and the information we can see in the food pyramid with the agreements that we had created the day before. We would change them if it was necessary. (10 minutes)

**__COMPARISON 2__** In pairs they will have to compare the pyramid, the information given and the agreements with the food they had eaten the day before and identify the mistakes they have made (they may have classified the food in an incorrect group). With this activity we will be preparing the activity we will do to finish the teaching unit. (10 minutes)

**__HOMEWORK__** They will have to bring images (printed images or images taken from magazines) of different types of food. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: 'Lucida Grande',Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> LESSON 3    <span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: 'Lucida Grande',Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">__CREATE YOUR OWN HEALTHY MENU__ ** In pairs they will have to make and agreement and create a healthy menu that may last a whole day. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">With this activity we will evaluate if they have understood the different groups and the importance of combining the different groups. (15 minutes) They will have to upload it on Blogger (We will have created a Blogger for our class and they will all have the user name and the password in order to be able to upload information it)


 * __CREATE OUR FOOD PYRAMID__**

We will work on 5 groups, one for each of the food groups of the pyramid. They will have to collect all the images related to their group and prepare them with its name in order to be able to stick them on the general food pyramid. Once all the groups have prepared their images they will stick them in turns in a big food pyramid we will have prepared. This is going to be our class food pyramid. With this activity we will make them work in groups, express their opinions and review some vocabulary (40 minutes)


 * __QUICK CLASSIFICATION__**

We will give them the same worksheet we had given them the first class and they will five to fulfill it as quickly as they can. With this activity we will evaluate if they know how to classify food in a group of the pyramid (5 minutes).
