Note to the teacher : Before starting your file, get your pupils know what
they
are going to learn about across the file by explaining the general theme of the
whole file and eliciting the meaning of the title.
You may have noticed that on each new file, you find the
Expression Food for Thought
Lessons’ plansLessons’ plans
What does it mean
« It‘s my Treat »?
As at class : 1st elicit the meaning of the expression : « It’s my
treat »
Teacher: when we say something is my treat, it means we are
offering to pay for something. For example: You invite your friends
to dine at the restaurant. You just finish eating and say “It’s my
treat” meaning:” I’ll pay for this meal”
The following expressions have also the same meaning
It’s a treat I’ll treat you It’s on
me Let me treat you
What does it mean
Food for Thought
1-Food for the body increases your strength and growth.
Food for the mind increases your mental knowledge.
2-It also means the intellectual nourishment that provides
stimulus for thinking.

Period One : Presentation
The Tag Questions
Teacher presents a brief summary of question types
To ask a question in English, you must usually use one of the auxiliary verbs “ be –
have – do” or a modal verb: “can- will – must- may …
Listen and Consider
In this part of the lesson, students are going to learn to
-Ask tag questions
-Identify rising and falling intonation
in tag questions
-Listen for gist.
Question Types

The two in one
questions
Auxiliary Questions
If you are expecting a yes, no answer,
then the question starts with the
auxiliary or the modal.
Examples
-Is Juan Japanese?
-Must we come early?
-Do you like German food?
WH Questions
If you want more information than a
simple yes, no answers, you must ask
questions starting with one of the
following question words: who, what,
where, when, why, which, whom, whose
and how. In this kind of questions, you
also normally use auxiliary or modal
verbs
Examples
-What did the teacher say?
-Where does she live,
-When can we play chess?
OR Questions
This kind of question is also called
alternative question. The reply is
usually a word or phrases from the
question itself. They are formed exactly
as yes, no questions, but contain two
final elements.
Examples
-Is it hot or cold in here?
-Are you married or single?
-Do you prefer coffee or tea?
Embedded Questions
It is a question in which another
question is inserted.
Example
Can you tell me where the train
station is?
There are two questions within this
question
1 is “Can you tell me something?”
2 is “where is the train station?
The latter is embedded in the former.

3.
A special type of questions is the tag that English people (speakers) put at the
end of many statements.
A tag question or mini question is a question that we
add to the end of a statement because we would like to
get an answer to our statement.
Tags are very common in spoken English, and have many
functions. One of the common functions is to start a
conversation or help keep it going.
Question tags are used to find out if something is true , or want people to agree
or disagree .
The tag contains a subject pronoun : « it, he, she » which matches the subject of the
statement and a verb which matches the verb in the statement.
It is a very nice weather today, isn’t it?
She can speak four languages, can’t she?
The two basic rules about tag questions are:
1-If the statement is positive, the tag must be negative
You were happy, weren’t you?
Positive negative
The tense of the tag is determined by the tense of the auxiliary or modal verb
of the statement that precedes it.
If the statement does not use an auxiliary or modal; i.e.: it is in the present or
past simple tense, then the auxiliary to do must be used.
He will arrive in time, won’t he?

Read and Consider
Learning Objectives:

………………….. ?
Fonda’s sister is a
model,
……………………….. ?
If we use a rising intonation ( )
in the tag, we do not know or we are
not quite sure of the answer.
You haven’t seen my tennis shoes,
have you?
Sorry, I haven’t.
I couldn’t borrow your dictionary,
could I?
I’m afraid you couldn’t.
If we use a falling intonation
( ) in tags, we are seeking the
agreement of the person we are
talking to.
It has been a lovely day today, hasn’t
it?
Yes, you are right.
The listening activities of this phase of the lesson and their answers, are

Research and Report
Learning objectives:
Students should be able
to read a food’s label
to discriminate between healthy and
unhealthy food
To the teacher: Before you introduce the topic food and food labels, you should
recycle the comparative of adjectives.
AdjectivesAdjectives
An adjective is a describing word. In most sentences, it goes before
the word it describes.
UsesUses
Most adjectives describe the thing which they are attached to.
They tell us about its: size, colour and other features.
Don’t ues too many adjectives: good writers use just a few adjectives
chosen with care.
You can have a single adjective:
James has got a red car.
Or you can have more than one
The big shiny yellow ball.
You have to put the adjectives in the right order:
SIZE, TEXTURE, COLOUR, TYPE

The comparative of superiority is used between two: people, animals,
places or things to say that one item has a larger amount of quality than
the other.
When we compare, we look at what makes them different from each
other.
Comparative adjectives are used to show what quality one thing has more
or less than the other

A HEALTHY DIET
Look at the food pyramid. It helps us to choose healthy food. You need
to eat a lot of the food at the bottom of the chart and only a little of
the food at the top.
You need to eat a lot of cereals like rice, corn and bread every day. You
also need a lot of vegetables like lettuce and carrots. Fruit – like
pineapples, papayas and oranges – is also important. Every day you need
to eat some protein and dairy products (milk, cheese, and yogurt). It
helps you to grow. There is protein in meat, fish, eggs and beans. The
food at the top of the chart has a lot of fat or sugar. Try to use the
food pyramid every day. It can help you to eat healthily.
