asking questions
Food vocab
How did you pick this theme or topic?
I wanted to do something fun with them, and 20 questions is a game that allowed them all to speak and learn some new vocab and defend their opinions (why yes and not probably? Etc…).
Also, I wanted them to get started on the vocabulary related to cooking for the project.
How did you present the material? (Handouts, group work, general discussion, student presentations, etc.)
Handouts
How did students react?
Very well. They liked the game 20 questions and were interested in knowing more words about food.
Did they engage with each other and you?
Yes
What materials or media did you use? (articles, satellite tv, digital projector, etc.)
