Who hasn’t eaten an egg for breakfast? Though most people may say they have eaten eggs for breakfast, we can venture into exploring with our students the types of eggs they have tried for this morning meal. On the other hand, we can also ask learners which type of cooked eggs they like for breakfast or which ones they don’t like for it.

Here you are presented with six types of cooked eggs that we can work with our students. We can ask them for their preferences, but we can also venture in to asking them to go online and find out how one specific type is prepared. These are just a couple of sample activities for this topic.

Sample Activity 1 - Preferences

Provide your students with one of these conversation cards. Have them work in pairs and as soon as their conversation is over, move them to exchange information with another partner.

Student A	Student B
Ask your partner about what he likes to eat for breakfast. Ask him/her for the kinds of eggs he/she likes to eat for this morning meal. Also ask your partner for the kind of drink he/she prefers to have for breakfast. And feel free to ask him/her any other question you feel necessary.	Ask your partner about what his/her parents like to eat for breakfast. Ask him/her for the kind of eggs his/her parents like to eat for this morning meal. Also ask your partner for the kind of drink his/her parents like to have for breakfast. And feel free to ask additional questions if necessary.

Sample Activity 2 - Recipes

A second option is to have our learners continue productively speaking is to have them search for simple recipes they can explain to the class. This is a very good exercise to have students describe a process.
