Healthy Grocery Shopping (English lesson, primary school)

Lesson Plan from the year 2018 in the subject Didactics - English - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, Bielefeld University, language: English, abstract: This contains an English lesson for primary school. The topic is: ''Healthy Grocery Shopping'. The described lesson on hand is part of a whole unit dedicated to the topic 'Going Grocery Shopping' which aims purposefully for applicability of foreign-language skills. The unit addresses mainly communicative competencies like 'Verfügbarkeit von sprachlichen Mitteln', more specifically 'Wortschatz und Redemittel' by giving the children opportunities to not only express themselves but also interview classmates, work and reflect with them and presenting their results together. While doing this, authentic and true-to-life situations play an important part in catching the children's interest and showing them the topic's relevance to their life outside the classroom. In the case of the topic Going Grocery Shopping the relevance can be found in itself since every human being needs food and drinks and has to go grocery shopping or shopping at a market at one point in his life. For that reason, the unit can be assigned to the 'Erfahrungsfeld: jeden Tag und jedes Jahr'.
