To complete the activity, they chose a traditional local dish, prepared a short recipe card with ingredients, and filmed step‑by‑step cooking video instructions. This way, they practised English in a fun, creative way while sharing their local food traditions.
First of all, I'd like to welcome you to my blog. My intention's to make it a place for cherishing great memories of working with school children. Here you'll find some tips, projects done by my pupils, their essays and poems, video clips (I don't know if it's me, but my pupils really enjoy singing), and things that can be interesting and useful. All the photos, videos and pupils' work are published with permission. All media are either original, free for use, or include credit to the source.

My Country on a Plate
As part of the English Quest project, Class 5 pupils collaborated on creating a cooking dictionary. Each school wrote several sentences with imperative verbs. My pupils wrote: Sprinkle the sugar on the cake, Grate the cheese for the pasta, and Flip the pancake in the pan. Pupils then illustrated their partners’ sentences using AI‑generated images in Canva.
