Teacher’s Overview
Food & Eating – Spot the Differences (A1–B2)
This Spot the Differences lesson uses two almost identical food scenes as a starting point for vocabulary, grammar, observation, speaking and discussion. Students begin with basic food vocabulary and simple observation at A1. At A2 they practise describing food, prepositions, there is/there are and practical communication. B1 develops the topic into healthy eating, habits, preferences and opinions. B2 moves into wider issues such as modern diets, food culture, environment, money and lifestyle choices.

💡 TEACHING TIP
The pictures are only the starting point.
At lower levels, encourage students to name food, identify items and describe what they can see.
At higher levels, don’t simply ask students to find the differences. Ask them to explain what changed, where it changed and how they know.
The same pictures can therefore generate very different levels of English.
