METHODOLOGY

Teacher will show the Power Point of the fruits. Children must be paying attention about the fruits and their characteristics: form, colour… It could be interesting that the children try to speak about fruits and what they already know about them in English. It would be a great chance for them to lose their fear to foreign languages and a nice experience to show their resources.

Then, the teacher will show a video with a song about fruits and they also have to sing with the teacher. It maybe would be difficult to do in a 45 min session but it would be interesting. The teacher has brought to the classroom different types of fruit and with all the things they have learned about fruits, they have to do a fruits salad. The teacher, obviously, would help them, specially cutting the fruits.

Finally, they could eat the salad and, if they remember it, sing the song.

The key of this activity is that if they can touch and see what they have learn, in this case, the fruits, the knowledge will be useful for them and they will probably don’t forget about it.
