Preparing this resourcePrint enough sets for 1 set between 2 – 4 learners, single sidedCut up into individual pictures and words
#TopTipsPrint or copy onto card to make the cards last longer so you can use them again (and again, and again…)If you are printing more than one set, print each set onto a different colour card to help you to easily organise your sets
Ideas for using this resource1. Use the pictures to elicit different types of food and drink2. Get learners to match the pictures with words3. Put the words and/or pictures into alphabetical order4. Sort the words and/or pictures into categories, such as:
- likes and dislikes- healthy and unhealthy- food groups (i.e. fruit, vegetables, protein, carbohydrate etc)
then tell the rest of the group about their categories (i.e. ‘I like bananas and crisps but I don’t like tomatoes’)
5. Get the learners to make posters or displays with the pictures and labels6. Play the memory game. Give each learner a picture or word depending on
their level and start a story – ‘I go to the shop and I buy ….’ Learners in turn repeat all the items others have said and add the item in their picture or named on their card.
