This episode describes a popular recipe book, named Hungry Girl. I want to chose this as a material in a classroom because the topic is interesting and students will like it. Diet is also the topic that high school students care.
First, I will have students watch the news. I will ask several questions regarding to this site, such as " What is hungry girl ?" After sharing this content in class, I will have students watch this site again. At the second time, they can guess and understand the content easier. After the watching it, I will seperate students to 3-4 people group and have them write the reasons why " hungry girl" is good for diet. After this groupwork, I will have students watch this site and write down the recipe in the news. Last I will share the content in a class.
As an assignment, I will tell students to go to the website of Hungry Girl and write their own opinions about the website.
Through this activity, the students can enjoy listening and they might go to the website actually. Students can realize that the material used in a class is related to the real world. The visual of TV can help them understand English.

Keiko,
What a great choice for today's classrooms. Diet is always a topic that students have opinions about and this video clip provides a good starting point for the activities that you outlined.
