Hello everybody,

Here is what we did lately :

We worked on an extract from the movie entitled : "Falling Down".

We first imagined what the customer was going to do :

I think / I guess / I imagine the customer is going to punch the manager.

The customer may become furious and spit on the waitress.

=> A retenir : pour supposer ce qui va se passer, il y a deux moyens en anglais :

1) Mot de l'opinion (ex : I think) + mot du futur : will

OU

2) MAY

Then, we watched the entire video and discovered what actually happened :

Finally, the customer didn't punch the manager.

The customer got a gun out of his bag.

He changed his mind.

He didn't order breakfast.

=> A retenir : pour parler d'un événement passé, on utilise le prétérit :

1) verbes réguliers : verbe + ED prononcé /t/, /d/ ou /id/. Ex : He changed his mind.

2) verbes irréguliers : verbe à connaître : ex : He became furious.

3) négation : did + not + verbe sans rien : ex : he didn't order breakfast.

Next lesson :

Preparation for the final task.

Today, we formed groups of 3 or 4 and we read the instructions for the oral and written tasks.

Here it is :

- With your group [a waiter or waitress + 2 customers] : choose a name for your diner, choose an origin for your food. Create a menu (dishes, deserts, drinks...). Prepare a script for the situation and include a problem.

- Alone (seul) : create a recipe (une recette) and talk about the history of your dish.

HOMEWORK : FOR 23/09/2014 : prepare the final task (see the instructions / voir ci-dessus)
