Procedure

1. Introduction (5 minutes)

Begin by asking your students if they like to eat fruit. Most students will say yes, so use this as an opportunity to introduce the topic of the lesson: fruits in English. Write the word "fruit" on the whiteboard or chart paper.

3. Fruit Scavenger Hunt (15 minutes)

If possible, hide the real fruits around the classroom. Give your students a list of the fruits they need to find. When they find a fruit, they should bring it back to you and say its name in English.

4. Fruit Salad (20 minutes)

Divide your students into small groups. Give each group a bowl and a variety of fruit pieces. Have the groups make a fruit salad together. As they are making the salad, encourage them to talk about the different fruits they are using.
