Introduction
(5 minutes)- Ask students to help you prepare vegetable soup. Imitate going to the grocery store to purchase vegetables.
- Then, have all the students use their imagination to pretend to pour water in a pot to cook vegetables.
- Show students how to imitate chopping up vegetables, scooping them off of the chopping board and into the water.
- Remind them to wait for the water to boil in order for the soup to be able to "cook."
- In the meantime, pretend to add salt, pepper, water, and other ingredients for extra flavor.
