Education Standards
Food (Health)
Overview
This OER Lesson Plan Foods (Health) was created by Kelly Garcia as part of the 2024 World Language OER Summer work and training. Educators worked with Chrystal Liu, Nick Ziegler and Dorann Avey to create OER Learning Plans and materials.
The attached Lesson Plan is designed for 9 - 12 World Language/ELL/ESL teachers for student learning of Mid-High Novice Learners. Students will evaluate and compare the elements of a healthy lunch and compare school lunches around the world. Students will also create their own school lunch plan based on healthy choices. The lesson plan is written in English for adaptation to any target language. This Lesson Plan addresses the following NDE World Language Standard(s): NE 1.1b, 1.3b, 1.4b, 3.2b
It is expected that this Lesson Plan will take students 60 minutes to complete.
Lesson Plan for Food/Health with a focus on School Lunches
For Teachers
Complete each activity. After the entire activity is finished, compare your answers with a partner.
For each picture below, use as many (target language) words to describe what you see and how it relates to your health. Use as much vocabulary as possible. (What ingredients do you see? Is it a healthy option or not? Explain.)
B. What foods are served in your school for lunch?
C. Watch the School Lunch video. There are different countries (Japan, Italy, etc.), and the videos are very short. Compare what you see with your own lunches at school. How is your lunch different from what you saw in the video? What similarities did you notice?
D. Make a realistic weekly lunch plan for yourself using healthy, tasty options.
