A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Draw a timeline from dawn to sunset and introduce the two meals using page 2.
- Ask learners to decide whether each meal clue belongs before dawn or after sunset.
- Use dates and meal to establish a few crossing letters, then attempt the longer words.
- Check the grid and have pairs retell the timeline with the phrases before dawn and after sunset.
Support and extension
Invite learners to practise neutral descriptions with many Muslims and some communities.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
