Recap + Table manners

Hey,

 

http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQShQQIuZPVDYCy2DA_5VcjBpgcw4FEiurdWoVcOQoSRwimtE0&t=1&usg=__j2P-jRGvlnSbZqmfIus4TE7SzcU=today we first warmed up a little. Here is what we said at the beginning of the class:

 

"to be written by Kim"

 

Then we continued speaking about junk food and we tried to give a definition. You had to decide if some food items were junk food or not and explain why. Here is what we said:

 

Junk food items are high in fat, sugar, starch and salt.
They are unhealthy and greasy. You should cut down on these ingredients if you don't want to put on weight.
If you eat too much salt, you may have a heart problem / disease / condition.

 

Phonetics:

Heart -> [a - heart]

 

We continued the lesson with crazy table manners. Here is what we said:

 

You must eat with three fingers.
You should not breathe between two dishes.
You should try to look excited when you wait for my mother's dish.

 

HW: you need to finish this list of advice for a dinner at the Queen's.

<br /> Bonjour monsieur. pour la mise a jour, que faut il que j'écrive quand vous dites "We continued the lesson with table manners" ?<br /> <br /> <br />

<br /> <br /> Hi Kim,<br /> <br /> you need to write a list of crazy table manners that we have listed such as:<br /> <br /> - You should put your feet on the table and eat with your feet... etc...<br /> <br /> Take care,<br /> Mr Hattais.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />

<br /> these are many recommendations if you are invited at the queen's for dinner, you should abside by some rules.<br /> You must be polite.<br /> you must'nt use your fingers.<br /> you must use your knife and fork to eat.<br /> you may use your hands only for the bread.<br /> You should put the bread on to a special plate.<br /> you should way for the next dish with your hands on your lap.<br /> <br /> <br />

<br /> The document is a cartoon in black and white. It shows two characters, a wife and her husband. they are watching tv and they are eating junk food at the same time. they both look like couch<br /> potatoes. They are extremely fat/obese/overweight. they may be having an argument/fighting/having a fight/arguing over the tv programme on the food.<br /> The woman may be saying:<br /> "I can't stand/bear your eating junk food anymore."<br /> or "this programme sucks, change the channel for god's sake!"<br /> <br /> <br />

<br /> <br /> Hi Kim,<br /> <br /> <br />  <br /> <br /> <br /> thanks for typing the lesson. There are still some important parts missing (cf. grammar + follow-up on the cartoon). I guess you haven't had time to post them yet. I'll be waiting for them and<br /> updating the blog as soon as I get your mail.<br /> <br /> <br /> Take care,<br /> <br /> <br /> Mr Hattais.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
