Conversation Anna: Hi there, Ashley! Ashley: Anna! Hi! Where are you going? (Anna’s stomach growls loudly) Ashley: What was that? Anna: I’m hungry. When I’m hungry, I only want to eat junk food! But I know I should eat healthy food. So, I fight with myself. One side says, ‘You should eat healthy food.’ The other side says, ‘But I want to eat junk food!’ Ashley: Well, Anna, go to the Giant supermarket. You should be able to find all kinds of food there - for all of you. Anna: Good idea, Ashley. See you later! Ashley: 'Bye, Anna. Anna: Wow! This supermarket is huge! Look at all of these fruits and vegetables! I should eat more vegetables. Healthy: Good idea, Anna. You must eat more vegetables … like celery! Junky: Celery?! Do you know what the web says about celery? Anna: No, what? Junky: “Celery is 95 percent water - 100 percent NOT ice cream. I love the web!” Healthy*: Anna, you mustn’t eat junk food. Junk food will kill you. Junky*: You are being silly. Healthy: No, you are! Junky: No, you are. Anna: Will you two please be nice to each other? It is important to eat healthy foods. But, a little junk food will not kill me. Hmm, ice cream. Ice cream does sound good. Junky: Take this cart to the frozen food aisle! Healthy: No wait, go back! Go back! We forgot fruit. Go back!! Anna: Okay, we are in the frozen food aisle! Junky: Mmm, ice cream! Healthy: Mmm, frozen peas! Junky: Nobody says, ‘Mmm, frozen peas. They say, ‘Mmm, ice cream! Healthy: Mmm, frozen peas!! Junky: Mmm, ice cream!! Anna: I am not going to tell you two again! Stop fighting! Anna: I smell fresh bread! I love the smells of a bakery! Healthy: Oh, Anna, let’s buy a fresh loaf of whole wheat, organic bread! Junky: You don’t have to buy bread. Buy some donuts, Anna! Healthy: You mustn’t buy donuts. They are only fat and sugar. Junky: Exactly! You know, you are really no fun at all. Healthy: And you must think having high cholesterol is fun. Junky: Everyone likes donuts! That is why you don’t have friends! Healthy: And that is why your cholesterol is so high! Junky: My cholesterol is none of your business!! Healthy: And I have lots of friends!! Anna: Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! I am sick and tired of the both of you!! Anna: I know what you two need! Junky: Anna! What are you doing? Healthy: Put me down! Anna: You two need to cool off! Anna: I am going to go buy my healthy food and my junk food! Good bye! Anna: Until next time … Note: "Healthy" and "Junky" are Anna's thoughts about what she should eat.

Learning Strategy Learning Strategies are the thoughts and actions that help make learning easier or more effective. The learning strategy for this lesson is Classify. When we classify we sort things into categories, or looks for things that are different or the same. Classifying helps us to organize and remember new information. In this lesson, Anna classifies foods into two groups: healthy and junk food. She knows that she should eat more healthy foods. But she also like to have some junk foods, like ice cream. Do you ever classify the new things you are learning in English? Write to us about it in the Comments section or send us an email. Teachers, see the Lesson Plan for more details on teaching this strategy.
