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".
Welcome Christmas Time Sweetly: "Class-made" Trifle (2/2)
It is time to prepare our "class-made" trifle. In this new entry in Pbc English I will show how we prepared this delicious and traditional dessert in our language class...a different way to bring British culture in our language class.
1st step: show and tell the ingredients.
In the last lesson we divided the class in groups and each group decided the ingredients they were going to use. So, firstly, in this lesson, one by one each group tells and shows the ingredients the have chosen.
2nd Step: giving instructions and following the recipe
I began giving the instructions for the first layer, the sponge cake. Then, each group in turn gave the instructions of how to prepare the other layers, jelly, fruit, custard, cream and the final decoration with jelly.
They used vocabulary such as put, add, spread, cut, remove...At the same time they were giving the
instructions, they were adding the layers.
3rd step: Decoration with jelly
When all the groups finished putting all the layers, we decorated the trifle with Jelly...
4th step: Yummy Yummy!
Here you have the final result... we enjoyed cooking in English, working together, learned some culture and most important IT WAS DELICIOUS
