It’s time to teach Unit 7 How do you make banana milk shake? As usual, I prepared for the lesson before class, but I couldn’t find the best way to lead in the text. I thought and thought, then I had an idea, I decided to ask the Ss to bring their blender , fruits and milk to school, let them DIY in the English class. When I told them my idea, they felt very happy and they were very active in class, while they were making fruit milk shake, they must tell the procedures in English. In the class, the Ss can not only practice speaking English but also can drink their fruit milk shake. After class, some Ss said to me,” Miss Wu, We like this kind of lesson very much. and hope to have more lessons like this.”
Maybe I was influenced by my Ss, when I got back home, I took out of the blender at once, I decided to make fruit milk shake too. I remembered Linguangchang, a nutritional science professor from Taiwang gave a talk on Hunan TV a few days ago, he said “drinking vegetable juice is good for our health” and an English proverb, ”An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” So I cut up a carrot, three apples, an orange, a tomato and put them in the blender , then pour some yogurt and some honey into the juice. At last , I asked my husband and my son to taste the fruit and vegetable milk juice, they said it was very delicious. I was very glad to hear that. I also think it’s important to eat balanced diet and have a healthy lifestyle.
