Reading: “Breakfast”
Breakfast is often said to be the most important meal of the day, and
for good reason.

Eating breakfast provides a range of benefits that can
positively impact your health and well-being.
Reading: “Breakfast”
First and foremost, breakfast jumpstarts your
metabolism and helps you maintain a healthy weight.

When you skip breakfast, your body goes into
conservation mode and slows down your metabolism,
which can lead to weight gain over time.

Eating a balanced breakfast also helps you avoid
overeating later in the day.
Reading: “Breakfast”
Second, breakfast provides important
nutrients that are essential for a healthy diet.
Reading: “Breakfast”
By eating a variety of foods at breakfast, you can ensure
that you are getting a range of vitamins, minerals, and
macronutrients that are necessary for good health.
Reading: “Breakfast”
Furthermore, eating breakfast can also improve cognitive
function and mood, as it helps to stabilize blood sugar
levels and provide energy for the brain.
Reading: “Breakfast”
Children who eat breakfast regularly have been
shown to perform better in school and have
improved behavior.
Reading: “Breakfast”
Overall, the benefits of eating breakfast
are clear.

A concluding paragraph is often included to restate your position or point of view. It is good that you still remember our lesson yesterday. The things that you learned are very useful as we proceed to today`s lesson.
  8. Component 2: Purpose of the lesson Time: 3 minutes Today, we are going to look more closely at one type of persuasive text. The sample text relies on providing good reasons and facts to support a point of view. It appeals to reason rather than emotions to persuade or convince someone. You are going to learn to recognize the features of a good argument.
  9. Component 3: Language Practice Time: 5 minutes Strategy/Activity: Crossword Puzzle in a Minute. Teacher: As we continue, this time, let us be familiarized with some words that you will encounter later in the succeeding activities. To do that, we will have the game called Crossword Puzzle in a Minute. We will have two groups and each group is given the crossword puzzle which you will accomplish in just one minute. The first group to complete the task shall win.
  10. Component 3: Language Practice Time: 5 minutes Strategy/Activity: Crossword Puzzle in a Minute. Teacher: Let us now check your answers and find out who wins.
  11. Component 3: Lesson Language Practice Time: 5 minutes  Teacher introduces vocabulary for the lesson. Now, let’s read the words and their meanings together. Boys and girls read alternately. • persuasive text (a text where the main purpose is to present a point of view and to persuade a reader, e.g., argument, discussion, review, or advertisement) • argument (a persuasive text type that argues one point of view) • thesis statement (a sentence that states the main idea or an argument.

  16. Component 4: Activity 4A. Time: 5 mins. Since we are done defining some words, we are now ready for the argument text written by a Grade 7 student about ‘Breakfast’. This text is found in your workbook on page 49 (for consolidation) I will play an audio of this text, and sentence by sentence, you will follow reading aloud. (Teacher will pause the audio after every sentence.) Breakfast is often said to be the most important meal of the day, and for good reason. Eating breakfast provides a range of benefits that can positively impact your health and well-being. First and foremost, breakfast jumpstarts your metabolism and helps you maintain a healthy weight. When you skip breakfast, your body goes into conservation mode and slows down your metabolism, which can lead to weight gain over time. Eating a balanced breakfast also helps you avoid overeating later in the day. Second, breakfast provides important nutrients that are essential for a healthy diet. By eating a variety of foods at breakfast, you can ensure that you are getting a range of vitamins, minerals, and macronutrients that are necessary for good health. Furthermore, eating breakfast can also improve cognitive function and mood, as it helps to stabilize blood sugar levels and provide energy for the brain. Children who eat breakfast regularly have been shown to perform better in school and have improved behavior. Overall, the benefits of eating breakfast are clear. It's a simple yet effective way to support your overall health and well-being, so don't skip it! [Adapted from text generated by ChatGPT Open AI. https://openai.com/chatgpt
