4. Reading and
speaking. Group work

T: Thank you. As
you see there are a lot of disadvantages of eating junk food. I'd like to
help you to make right choices in your eating habits. I propose you to work
in groups and make a rainbow diet. Each group works with a certain part of
the text, reads and makes one rainbow colour. Then a spokesperson comes to
the blackboard and tells us about this colour. Meanwhile, you listen to each
group and fill in the gaps in your HOs.

food should you eat if …
1) you have a
difficult exam to study? ____

very nervous about meeting someone? _______________

about getting lines and wrinkles? ______________
4) you've been
feeling a bit sad lately? _______

HO3
The text
Red foods.
Red foods get you moving. They give you that extra boost when
you really need it the most. What's more, eating foods in this group will
protect you from many serious illnesses and can keep older people active for
longer. So, have you got a big game tonight? Is it your turn to do the
gardening? Then go ahead and treat yourself to one or even two of your
favourite red foods.
Orange foods
Orange foods are brain food. They help you keep your
mind on things and really improve your powers of concentration. On the
physical side, foods like mangoes, oranges and peaches have lots of vitamin С This is important because that's the vitamin that helps your
body fight off infections. As everyone knows, carrots are also fantastic for
your eyesight. After all, you've never seen a rabbit wearing glasses, have
you?
Yellow foods
Yellow foods are nature's way of helping us to stay happy.
They make you more optimistic. Imagine that you're feeling a bit down in the
dumps. Eat a banana and you'll feel a bit better. Eat a couple of slices of
pineapple and you'll feel a smile coming on and by the time you finish your
tall glass of lemonade, you'll be grinning from ear to ear! What could be
easier? Enjoying yellow foods is better for you, emotionally, than hearing
the best jokes in the world.
Green foods
Broccoli, lettuce and cucumbers are all green foods. These
foods are great when you want to relax, calm yourself down or keep your
emotions under control. Green foods are good for you because they contain
vitamins and minerals that keep your teeth and bones strong and healthy, so
next time your mum tells you to eat all your peas don't complain, just do it.
Remember, mums always know what's best for you, no matter how old you are!
Blue foods
You've had a hard day and now you just want to flop in front
of the TV for a bit before you go to bed. When your tummy starts rumbling you
go in search of a quick snack - but what should you eat? The best thing at
this time of the day is something blue. Blue foods are soothing, both
emotionally and physically, and prepare you for a good night's rest. Say
goodnight with a delicious bowl of blueberries or a handful of tasty raisins.
Purple foods
Shakespeare, Da
Vinci and Picasso must have all been fans of purple foods. This is because
fruits and vegetables like figs, prunes and beetroot make people more
creative. If that isn't a good enough reason to eat them, then think about
this ... purple foods can keep you looking young! Imagine being eighty years
old, but looking as if you're forty and just about to finish writing your
second best-selling novel. Bring on the purple foods!
