 The Restaurant Skit


Now that you have French menus, you will be creating a short skit in a restaurant.  

You will need to welcome your customers, seat them, ask them what they would like to order or tell them the specials of the day.  The customers need to order food and you can add on any other conversation BUT it has to be easy to understand using simple vocabulary.  Please share any new vocabulary that was not taught in class with the audience before hand so that everyone understands what you are saying. 

You can have 3 - 5 people in your skit.  Please write your conversation on a shared file in Teams so if anyone is away, everyone still has access to the file. 

Here is somewhere you can find and hear the vocabulary you might be using in your skit.
