Welcome Christmas Time Sweetly: "School-made Trifle"(1/2)

Christmas Time is here and we are greeting it with a famous and traditional dessert in the British isles...Trifle
Trifle is a very traditional British recipe consisting of layers of different and delicious ingredients: cake, fruit, jelly, cream, custard...it is very colourful so it immediately becomes very attractive for children. In this new entry in PBC English I will show you how I worked with this recipe in my 3rd cycle class. Yummy!!!
1st Step: Show recipe, possible ingredients and how to make it.

I showed them pictures in the digital board so they can see the trifle


2nd Step: video sheet.

I delivered a sheet containing some question they have to answer after watching the video of the trifle recipe.

3rd Step: Brainstorm

Before watching the video, children told me what they thought it was going to appear in the video. We wrote everything in the digital board.

4th Step: Watch the video.

I found in YouTube an "easy to follow" video of how to prepare trifle. It lasts 5 minutes so I played it once, then checked for understanding and then played it again(in the digital board). Then we corrected the video sheet stopping the video and finding the answers.




 5th Step: Post-brainstorm and groups.

Finally, we went back to the brainstorm, we saw what they have predicted and completed with vocabulary they learned from the video. To conclude the class I made the groups for the next class in which we will prepare and eat our "school-made trifle".
