Lesson objectives:
At the end of the lesson students will be able to:
- know the history of potato,
- make different recipes which include potatoes,
- identify the benefits of consuming potatoes,
- develop their language skills (after listening to the video they will fill in the quiz and make their own compositions in writing), artistic and ICT skills (preparing videos and powerpoint presentations with different recipes)
Potatoes have played a much more significant role in our history than just that of the dietary staple we have come to know and love today. Leo Bear-McGuinness share how without the potato, our modern civilization might not exist at all.
