    After filling in the handout they are going to have enough time to reach the 3rd level of the game. Now they are investigating the game because they have a further question from KWL chart to answer "what they have learned".
Notes:
All of the students do not have mobile phones so at least there will be 1 or 2 phones in each group.

    Students will write a simple recipe by using any of the ingredients. They will apply what they have learned to develop an another recipe. They are going to stick their recipes on the board while leaving for the break. (curious ones will read the recipes as fast as they could for sure :)
Notes:
Some students will understand the game quickly some of them will be slow but the faster ones can improve their scores so they won't get bored. *The teacher can tell the students to match the pictures to the steps if there is time left.

    The students are going to make their own recipes including pictures of the game (they can choose the recipe they want) which clearly shows the ingredients and instructions. They are going to share them on the class bulletin boards.
Notes:
If the students do not know how to use Google Drive the teacher can give them the handout attached. The students who completes Task 4 in a week will be rewarded with a badge. After this step I think without filling a chart the students will unconsciously pay attention to the ingredients and instructions of the meal.
