Activity - Nutella
ARTICLE: Nutella for breakfast?
Dr. Sandrock says: "When I was growing up in Iowa, we didn't have Nutella. Luckily, my father made regular trips to Germany and used to bring back small packs of Nutella from the breakfast buffet in his hotel. Later when I was in high school, Nutella came to the U.S. I remember sitting in my bean bag chair in front of the television, watching music videos on MTV and eating Nutella out of the jar with a spoon! Nutella tastes a little different in the U.S. because it is made with hydrogenated oil (gehärtetes Fett) and therefore it can't be sold in health food stores."
QUESTIONS:
What is your experience with Nutella?
Do you like Nutella?
Does your family buy Nutella or do they buy a store brand (S Budget Nougatcreme)?
Did you know you can make your own Nutella? Here's a recipe!
How do you eat Nutella? (on bread - what kind? on fruit? on ice cream? straight out of the jar?)
Do you think Nutella is a healthy food?
3C - Homework for Tuesday, November 8
Rewrite your article about stereotypes and type it up so it looks nice (Zeilenabstand 2, no more than one printed page)
Your article should:
* be around 250 words
* have an interesting title
* have a strong introduction (including definition of stereotype with an example)
* have three body paragraphs (after the introduction and before the conclusion)
1) how stereotype can lead to prejudice (with example)
2) how exceptions (people who do not fit a stereotype) can open people's minds
3) a good example of an exception (think of the videos we watched or use a personal example)
* have a conclusion (Schlussabsatz) which encourages people to be open-minded (how could being open-minded about people make the world a better place?)
If you did not write a first draft, you can still turn in an article on Tuesday. Here is the original assignment: http://ennsvalleyenglish.blogspot.co.at/2016/10/3c-homework-for-thursday-october-20.html
