Food Assignment

We have been working with food for a couple of weeks. By watching some films, looking at words and recipes, you have learned lots about food. Now it is time for you to prepare your own cooking show!

Follow these markers to prepare for your show:

- Pick one recipe that you like – look through the web, see if you find a recipe that your fancy/like. Copy it to a word document.

- Change the recipe – you have to write some things yourself. You can add fruits, meats or spices to the recipe.

- Start to write a script – Look at your recipe and think about what you have to do to cook it. What do you want to say? What do you want to film?

- Write down a list of all the words that has to do with food. Ingredients, appliances etc

- Start filming (3-5 min film with talking) – take time before to check the sound and picture, so you don’t have to do it all over. You can choose to talk when filming or add sound later.

- Show the film – Send the film to me; mail, teams etc should work. You can also choose to show the film for the rest of the class, but you don’t have to.

Make sure to practice! How you pronounce the words, when to paus etc.

You work alone – but you can discuss your recipe and script with a friend. (IN ENGLISH!!!)

At the end of the assignment, you will get to write a short text in English about food – more info will come.

Good luck!

Yearbook

During the last weeks of year nine, you are going to create a yearbook for the class which will hopefully be a nice memory for you to look back into. When you are finished, we will put your texts together in a booklet and everyone will get a copy of it. You can also choose to make a graduation speech for your class. Then the script of your speech will be your yearbook contribution.

We are going to watch and discuss different clips about the future and you will also get to write a letter to your future self if you have time. 

The text you write for the yearbook and your speech will be assessed, the letter will not! Your text should be about a page.
Here are some tips on what you can include in your contribution to the yearbook:

a.   Your best memories of your school years
b.   A time you laughed, or cried.
c.   A piece of advice to your classmates for the future
d.   Something you hope you never forget about this time in your life
e.   Something you feel proud of having done
f.    Something you would like to do all over again
g.   Write about an imaginary class reunion year 2045
h.   A letter from yourself in the future to your classmates
i.     What you want to do in the future
j.   Your högstadiet survival guide for the future year 7's
