What do people eat? Lesson 60
Step 1 Revision
1 Revise either... or... by saying, Either I'm at home, or I'm at school. Then ask, What two places are you at usually? Help the students to answer, Either I'm at __ or I'm at ____. Now ask a second student about where the first student usually is, only use two different places. For example:
Student 1: I'm either at school or at home. Teacher: Where does Susan usually stay? Student 2: She usually stays either at school or at home.
Practise neither... nor... in the same way. For example:
Teacher: Are you a doctor or a nurse? Student: I'm neither a doctor nor a nurse. I'm a student. If time permits, you may use this as a drill.
2 Revise the food items in this unit.
Step 2 Presentation
In small groups role-play a parent and a son / daughter who has a foreign friend over for dinner. Remind the students to use the phrases from SB Lesson 57, Part 3. Get several of the groups to share their role-play with the rest of the class.

"What's for dinner?" Max asked.
"I'm going to have some fish," Frank answered.
"Fish? I don't want fish. I had it for lunch. Let's go to a restaurant this evening," Max said.
"That's a good idea," Prank answered.
So Max and Frank went to a restaurant. They sat at a table and a waiter came to them.
