| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (What if...? question) |
Teacher: "Good morning, class! Let's start with a fun 'What if...?' question. What if you were a famous food critic for one day, and you had to describe the most delicious meal you've ever eaten to someone from another planet who has never tasted food? How would you describe it? Think about taste, smell, texture, and appearance. Please, share your ideas."
Teacher listens, writes key adjectives students use on the board (e.g., sweet, crunchy, spicy, delicious), and encourages participation. "Great! 'Delicious', 'spicy' – these are adjectives. Today, we're expanding our vocabulary to describe food and drink like real experts and will even create our own game show!" |
Students think individually for 30 seconds. They volunteer answers. Possible responses: "I would say it's very sweet and soft, like a cloud." / "It's a hot, spicy soup that makes your mouth feel alive." / "The meat was tender and juicy." |
Descriptors:

Whiteboard/markers, student notebooks. AI Tool: ChatGPT/DALL-E prompt displayed on screen: "Generate an image of an alien trying Earth food for the first time with a surprised expression." Visual hook to spark imagination. |
