Lesson Plan

Reading lesson

Topic: Food and Drinks. Eating Out

Target Language: food and drinks vocabulary; language used while ordering food in a restaurant;

                            a verb would like for asking for and making request

Students: 14-15 year-olds; 8th-9th graders

Level: Intermediate

Assumed knowledge:  vocabulary students are going to practise is mostly familiar to them, but they

                                    are unused to making orders in English

Materials: pictures; menu and dialogue worksheets; food and restaurant worksheet

Anticipated Problems & Solutions: students may mispronounce restaurant; they may confuse verbs would

                                                         like and like. So they need pronunciation practice at the beginning of

                                                         lesson and they also need context sentences to clarify meanings of the

                                                         verbs.

1. When you go out for a meal, you usually do a number of things. Look at the list of actions and, with a partner, put them into the correct order. Number one has been done for you.

2.  What are the people talking about in these sentences? In some cases there may be more than one answer.

1. I never have it late at night because it keeps me awake.
2. I like it rare of medium.
3. It makes you sneeze if it goes up your nose.
4. If you leave it in the sun, it will melt.
5. They often make you cry when you chop them.

Students should be able to deduce meaning of unknown items, so do not preteach them. The order is usually this:

1. decide to go out for a meal
2. book a table
3. go to the restaurant
4. sit down
5. look at the menu
6. order a meal
7. have the starter
8. have the main course
9. have dessert
10. ask for the bill
11. pay the bill
12. leave the restaurant

coffee / meat / pepper / butter or ice or chocolate or ice cream / onions
