ACTIVITIES

The lesson starts with a discussion about the reasons behind food waste and the seriousness of the problem. After that, students complete sentences about eating and cooking habits with provided words (e.g. avoid, stick, stock). Then, they decide whether the statements contribute to reducing food waste or to increasing it (e.g. I freeze some food to extend its use-by date.). Finally, students talk about their eating and cooking habits, and share their thoughts about the tips from the article they read at home.

Questions

Title separator

Is there a minimum subscription period if I choose a monthly subscription?

No, there's no minimum required number of subscription months. You can cancel any time you want. Basically, you can sign up and then cancel your subscription the next day, which will mean you have access for 1 month and won't be charged again.

What currencies can I pay in for my subscription?

Our default currency is USD (American dollar), but you can also pay in EUR (euro), GBP (British pound sterling) or PLN (Polish zloty). You can change the currency you want to pay in at the Pricing page before selecting a subscription plan.

How can I edit an e-lesson plan?

You can get your own editable copy of an e-lesson plan and make changes to it. To do so, either (1) make a copy of it on your Google Drive (preferable method) or (2) download it in a Powerpoint format (but formatting might be a bit off so we can’t guarantee that it will work well).
