This activity involves using a recipe that is written only in English. The recipe uses the vocabulary words from previous lessons. Don’t tell the students what they are making (chocolate chip cookies). Just give them the recipe and ask them to speak only in English to figure out how to make it. Minimal teacher supervision may be needed.
