French Unit
French Unit
This unit will take students through from basic vocabulary acquisition toward independent
group design of an entire food truck from recipes to promo material! Throughout students
will practice asking one another about food preferences and develop entire dialogue of a
meal ordering interaction between server and customer. Students will learn new descriptive
vocabulary to give create feedback to the chef!
Rationale
When I think of french culture I automatically think of food! Everybody eats and everyone
loves food so it is a topic which is easily engaging for students of all ages. The process of
creating a food truck design gives students many varied interactions with food vocabulary
and sentence structures.
