The food and drinks topic is among the key subjects in my English syllabus. Knowing names of food and drinks is a must for every English learner. As a rule, one learns English to be able to communicate with people and travel all over the world with as little language barrier as possible. Food is the essential one have to take care of whenever one goes. Trying local foods is one of the most pleasant moments of any trip. And we often welcome foreign guests with food and drinks, so we have to be able to offer them a treat in the language they understand, and English proves to be the language understood by more than 1.5 billion people. Therefore if one knows some English food & drinks vocabulary, chances are he or she will enjoy partaking of a meal in a good company of friendly foreigners. Sharing food together is a good way to make new friends and business partners.

Fruits and Vegetables Bingo Game

Playing games is the happiest pastime for every kid. That’s why I use games for my English classes to consolidate the vocabulary at the final stage of learning a topic. Bingo is one of my students’ favorite games. The game makes them very excited about the chance of being a winner. This excitement generates the thrill of competition and lots of emotions. People tend to better remember things that involve emotions. No doubt, such games help English learners retain the vocabulary in their memories for a very long time if not forever.
