Hi guys,

today we corrected the worksheet about pronunciation and you learned how to put the stress correctly in the sentence and how to pronounce unstressed words.

We also reviewed a lot of possibilities to express the quantity of something:

some ...
a cup of ...
a bowl of ...
a glass of ...
a bottle of ...
a piece of ...
a slice of ...
a side of ...
...

Homework:

- apprendre son rôle par cœur pour le passage à l'oral (waitress et manager / customer). Pensez à bien répéter chez vous. Vous n'aurez pas le droit d'avoir le texte sous les yeux et il faudra être le plus naturel et avoir le meilleur accent possible en respectant bien les règles de prononciation vues ensemble. N'hésitez pas à apporter des accessoires pour être aussi fidèles que possible à la scène de départ.

Good Luck!

Hi guys,

today we worked on pronunciation. You had to identify the most important words from the document and repeat with the correct sentence stress.

Finally we started an activity about how to pronounce grammatical words.

Homework:

- commencer à s'entraîner pour faire le rôle du client (customer) ou bien les deux rôles serveuse/responsable (waitress / manager)

Hi guys,

today you first acted some scenes at the restaurant (cashdesk) and then we worked on the following video:

Here is the lesson you wrote in your copybooks:

Polite requests:

Could you give me...
Could I have...
I'd like... ( ≠ I like)

I want / I don't want ...

Reacting to a surprising event in a bad way:
Are you kidding me? Really? Seriously?
It's a joke? Are you pulling my leg? What the Hell!

Video: A customer wants breakfast but he can't have it. It's eleven thirty three and they stopped serving breakfast at 11:30. It's time for the lunch menu.

Homework:

- faire l'exercice 1 de la feuille distribuée en cours (script de la vidéo). Vous pouvez bien sûr vous aider de la vidéo en la revisionnant pour faire l'exercice... =)

Hi guys,

today we started to act a scene at the restaurant where you had to be the waiter / waitress and the customer.

Here is the dialogue to help you get prepared for your final test.

* ask for food and drinks:

- Hi, I'm really hungry, I would like...
- Hi, I'm really thirsty, I'd like...

* ask for the price:

- How much is it, please?

* give the price:

- It's $______ all together.

* give something:

- Here you are.

- Enjoy your meal.

Vocab:

the cashier / waiter / waitress
the customer / client

I don't agree!

Homework:

- être capable de passer et prendre une commande en anglais.

Hi guys,

today we started a new lesson (the last of the year) about American Diners.

This menu is an American menu because:

* There are different words: French fries ≠ chips
* There is different spelling: donut ≠ doughnut
                                               favorite ≠ favourite
* The prices are in dollars -> the dollar sign is before the price
* There is a special tradition -> free refill = you can drink a lot / as much as you want
* There are a lot of American diners on "Route 66"

Then we continued the class with a visual explanation of the menu (pictures) and a Kim's game.

___________________________

Homework:

- écrire sous chaque image le nom en anglais (cf. regarder le menu à nouveau pour identifier le bon mot et la bonne orthographe).
- verbes irréguliers de 40 à 80.
