have introduced the topic, worked on specific vocabulary, listened to Kate Chong’s routine (class
correction) and talked about health related topics.
Learning Aims
During this 2nd part of the lesson, learners will be able to:

3. ● identify and differentiate healthy vs unhealthy food and activities.
● reflect and talk about healthcare personal habits, issues and possible solutions.
● consider taking the right, healthy choices in their lives; and having a better lifestyle.

4. Materials
Students and teacher will have an electronic device which allows them to connect to the lesson
via Zoom. The teacher will use a digitalised version of the student’s book (1st period) and a
Google form for the following activity.
Procedure
ROUTINE
There is no routine as this will take place in the second part of the class. However, we will use a
warm-up as a mini brain-break so that we help their brains switch off and on for the second part
of the class.
WARM-UP (brain break - 5 minutes)
We will play a 5-minute miming game. First the teacher will mime an action which the kids have
to guess.Then, students will take over. The ones who do not guess, have to stand up three times,
or clap three times, or jump three times, or turn around three times (and the like).
Transition:“Now, let’s have a look at our own habits? Do you believe you lead a healthy lifestyle?
Let’s find out!”
DEVELOPMENT (30 minutes)
Activity 1 (15 min)
This activity will shift the focus onto them. The main aim is to make students aware of their own
habits. To this end, we will use as reference one of the activities proposed by Mayley & Peachey
p.43, which will make students reflect upon their own lifestyles in a more accurate and objective
manner.
Wewill share with students a google form, which should not take longer than 5/7 minutes for them
to complete. Then, the idea is to discuss as a plenary class their answers (and ours too!). Besides,
we will be able to see the percentages of the class’ answers as a whole as shown below.

5. Transition: “Now, let’s give a close look to the results of the questionnaire and discuss what this
shows about our health and lifestyle”

6. Link to Google form: https://forms.gle/g17hkLRBFHNwGvzd6 We will request students to tick
the box at the end of the form for them to receive their own answers in their email accounts. It
goes without saying that all students already have a google account and are already familiar with
the use of ICT’s.
Following up on this, we will check the results in percentages as a whole.
Transition: “Ok. Now, it’s you that will have to do some research. Let’s see what you think and
find out.”
Activity 2 (15 min)
Using break-out rooms, we will make groups of four students. We will ask them to do some
researchand make a list of 5 healthy habits during the pandemic. The students will have to google
the information, share their ideas and agree on what to include in the list during a ten-minute
session. We will visit each break out room to monitor the activity and guide them in case they
need help. Then, they will come to the main room and share their lists.
CLOSURE (5 min)
To round up the class, we will ask them to compare their own habits and their lists and think if
they should make any changes to have a healthier life. As homework, we will tell the students to
upload 3 habits they think they need to change (trying not to repeat ideas) in a padlet we
previously created as homework.
Next class we will take a look at the final task they did. Before we say “goodbye” we will ask them
to repeat to us what they have to do for homework by themselves (to check understanding and
clarify any doubts).
Transition to the end: “Ok. Do everything and, please, remember not to drink alcoholic drinks,
smoke or do drugs! And remember anima sana in corpore sano” - ASICS! Like the trainer brand!”
(Humour is necessary in the virtual classroom too).
