Activity 2 Play “Count”.

Explain that you will again shuffle the flashcards with vegetables and fruits. You will take them one by one and say without showing them to pupils.
If it is a fruit, the children should clap their hands. If it is a vegetable, they should stamp their feet.
You will start slowly at first, then faster.
IV. Post-activity
Activity 5 Play “Shopping”.
Objective: to reinforce the polite phrases and vocabulary for vegetables and fruits
Tell your class they will be going to the market today. Divide your class into shoppers and stall owners. Give each stall owner a set of flashcards of fruits or vegetables. Give them enough time to go around and shop for fruits and vegetables.
Have you got plums? - No, sorry.
Have you got plums?
Yes. Here you are. - Thank you.
Then call out
the name of one of the items, say “apples” and tell them they are rotten. All of the pupils who bought apples must place them in a separate container – the “trash”. Allow them to continue shopping and then call out the name of another “rotten” item. At the end of the game, the pupil who has the most items – the one
who relinquished the fewest
“rotten” items – wins.
V. Homework:
Explain to the pupils that at home they should revise all the previous lessons and units to get prepared to the revision lesson.
