comer, estar and hay to talk about them.
Activity Summary
While reviewing a series of videos, students will take note of the food they see and hear. Then, the verbs

learned this and in previous lessons to improvise a dialogue in pairs of students.
Time Allocation
40-50 minutes
Procedure
- Activity 1 - Introduction – Presenting the food vocabulary
a. In a previous class, the teacher assigns the students as homework to watch the following video: La
comida. Nivel A1 (https://youtu.be/9XvSK0N4Cvg) and asks them to write in English as many food
names as they understand on Handout 1. The teacher explains that they will watch a video completely
in Spanish with no subtitles. The students should focus on understanding the food vocabulary they hear
and match it with the images they see in order to write the English translation.
b. In this class, the teacher shows the video a second time and presents the vocabulary. The Handout 1
is discussed and corrected.
c. Divide the class in five groups and distribute the Handout 2. Assign one of the following videos to each
group:
 Precios de canasta básica se mantienen estables (https://youtu.be/660zV1JRM50)
 Precios de Canasta Básica sin muchos cambios (https://youtu.be/PU0GORXhEFo)
 Principales alimentos de la Canasta Básica mantienen sus precios luego de Semana Santa
(https://youtu.be/qZeT7L5s2hY)
 Llegada del Invierno trae rebajas en precios (https://youtu.be/tjTK30_QqyE)
 Huevo y algunos productos perecederos bajan de precio (https://youtu.be/NHFsfJVPn8Q)
 Frijoles y tomate incrementan de precio en mercados capitalinos
(https://youtu.be/RUWCLQmFh8U)
 Precios estables en los mercados (https://youtu.be/6XP8w_IPZD0)
 Mercado Roberto Huembes con precios especiales los fines de semana
(https://youtu.be/ZIv9sAVnls8)
Explain that they will watch an authentic news report that takes place at a farmers market in Nicaragua
where the prices of the basic food basket are reported. Ask and discuss with the students: What’s the
www.speakinglatino.com
meaning of a ‘basic food basket? What do they think are the products that form the basic food basket in
the United States?
With these videos, the students will learn the name of the Nicaraguan currency (córdoba), they will hear
numbers in Spanish, see a farmer’s market, etc. The teacher explains that they should not worry about
understanding everything that is said in Spanish. The objective is to write all the food they see and
hear in the video. Each group member should separately take notes in their notebooks of what they
see and hear. Then, everyone will share their list and create one single final list on the Handout 2, part
1. The Handout 3 includes a list of all the food names mentioned in each video.
d. Once the food vocabulary practice is over, proceed to present the use of the verbs tener, comer and
estar to talk about food. The teacher uses the presentation La comida to review and present the verb
conjugations. The students take notes and complete the conjugation chart on the Handout 2, part 2.
 ¿Qué comes? – The teacher reviews the conjugation of the verb comer (since the students
already learned it in the regular infinitive verbs –AR –ER –IR conjugation lesson).
 Tengo hambre / Tengo Sed. – When do we use these expressions? The teacher presents the
conjugation of the irregular verb tener.
 The teacher also reviews the conjugation of the verb estar and presents the expressions: está
caliente, está frío, está salado, está dulce, está rico, está delicioso, está muy sabroso, etc.
e. The teacher shows the video El Mercado: Verbo HAY y Vocabulario de Frutas y Vegetales
(https://www.powtoon.com/c/b041N4LGUt1/2/m) to present the expressions hay and no hay. The
students again take notes on the Handout 1 of the food vocabulary mentioned in this second video.
f.
-
Now the teacher continues with the presentation to do a practice of the verbs and the vocabulary of all
the videos. The students see some images and create sentences with the verbs by answering the
teacher’s questions (see the notes section of each slide). For example:
 La leche está fría.
 La sopa está caliente.
 Ella come frutas.
Activity 2 – Food vocabulary and verbs comer, tener, estar and hay oral practice
a. Improvised conversation. The teacher prints some supermarket flyers. We recommend to use the
bilingual flyers from Miami, Florida:
 Supermercados Sedano’s - http://www.allweeklyads.com/sedanos-weekly-ad/
 Winn Dixie (Use Miami’s zip code 33131 to get the bilingual flyer) https://www.winndixie.com/weeklyad
 Presidente Supermarket - http://presidentesupermarkets.com/weekly-promotions/#
 Publix Miami http://weeklyad.publix.com/PublixSpanish/BrowseByPage?storeid=2602580&promotionid=1
25480&promotionviewmode=1&pagenumber=1&listingid=0#PageNumber=1
The class is divided in pairs of students, hand out a couple of copies of the flyers and two
envelopes. The students identify 6 fruits, vegetables, meats, etc. that they learned in the videos ,
www.speakinglatino.com
they cut and put them inside an envelope. The teacher collects the envelopes and writes the
following guidelines on the board that summarize what they have learned in previous lessons:
 me gusta / no me gusta
 hay / no hay
 tener hambre / tener sed
 está
 comer
 comprar
The teacher hands out one envelope randomly. Each pair of students has to improvise a 1-2
minutes conversation using the food from the envelope and the guidelines on the board. In addition
to the guidelines, they should adequately use greetings, definite/indefinite articles and question
formation in Spanish. For example:
- Hola, ¿Cómo estás?
- Tengo hambre. ¿Quieres comer (use an image from the envelope)?
- No me gusta __________. Yo quiero comer (use an image from the envelope).
- Yo compro (use an image from the envelope) y tú compras (use an image from the
envelope).
- Hay (use an image from the envelope) en el mercado. ¿A cuánto está (use an image
from the envelope)?
- Está a (say the price).
b. Riddles (Optional): The students play riddles. Still with their partners, they write a riddle about a
food and say it in front of the class to see if the rest of the students know what the food is. For
example: Todas las mañanas tomo jugo de esta fruta. Es redonda y está dulce. (La naranja)
Suggested evaluation method
It is advisable to have a rubric to assess speaking activities in which it should be clear to students how to move
from one level to the next. A rubric indicating how a student is Meeting, Exceeding or not Meeting Expectations
is the most useful. The suggested “Speaking Production Rubric” can be used (Handout 4).
