Activity 1 Listen and repeat.
Play the DVD. Ask the pupils to listen to and repeat the song. Ask which words they recognised.
DVD script:
Let’s go to market
Come on let’s go,
Come on let’s go,
Come on let’s go to market!
We’re going to buy,
We’re going to buy,
We’re going to buy some fruit.
Peaches, peaches, strawberries, strawberries!
Apples, apples, apples, apples!
Activity 2 Play “Find the fruits and vegetables”.
In advance, prepare the following vegetable and fruit flashcards/photos/real food. Also, prepare two baskets for the vegetables and fruits. Label one of the baskets “Vegetables” and the other “Fruits”.
Vegetables: potato, cabbage, eggplant, onion, pumpkin, tomato, cucumber, carrot, pepper
Fruits: peach, banana, apple, watermelon, melon, grapes, pear, strawberry, orange, cherry, apricot, plum, lemon
STEP 1: Before the pupils enter the classroom, hide the vegetables all around the room – on windowsills, behind books, under desks, etc.
STEP 2: Say to the pupils: ‘Let’s look for some vegetables and fruits!’ Then stand up and demonstrate that you are searching for something. Find one of the vegetables (e.g. under a table). Ask: ‘Is it a fruit?’ Get the correct answer: ‘No, it’s a vegetable.’ and take it over to the vegetable basket and drop it, saying: ‘Let’s put it in the vegetable basket’.
Activity 3 Look, listen and repeat.
STEP 1: Say: ‘Open your books.’ Point to the pictures. Ask: ‘What can you see?’ Accept anything reasonable and praise pupils.
STEP 2: Display the flashcards of the new words and point to each one in turn and say its name. Display the flashcards around the room. Say: ‘Listen and point.’ Say the name of the flashcard and encourage the pupils to turn towards the flashcards.
