Welcome to My Restaurant combines role play and language learning in the classroom. It helps students to learn helpful vocabulary within a context, and teaches them how to order and behave in a restaurant. The practice can be also used to discuss how to behave when you have food in your mouth or how to address the waiter when you need something. Complete the same activity in a different language or in a different location (different type of restaurant, etc.) You can also play the same activity but focus on the mathematical calculations of the menu.
Each child and adult chooses roles to play within a restaurant (i.e., waiter and customer). Set up table and chairs for the customers.
Have the child come up with a simple menu that includes lists of food and beverages with prices.
The person playing the waiter welcomes the people playing the customers and hands them the menu, makes suggestions about the "Special of the Day" or food and beverage pairings.
The waiter takes orders from each customer and asks for each menu item separately (beverages, appetizers, main dish, dessert, etc.) and should note them down. The waiter reads back the orders to the customers to check.
The waiter brings the food. The customers enjoy the meal. The waiter checks in on the customers periodically to see how they are enjoying the meal and to ask if they need anything.The waiter prepares the bill. Once the customers ask for the bill, the waiter gives the customers the bill and the customers pay the bill.
The waiter gives the change (if any) and thanks the customer for coming. The customers leave and the waiter clears the table.Practice words like welcome, after you, please, thank you, goodbye, etc. when speaking. Talk about the experience of being a waiter/customer and what one should or should not say or should do or should not in a restaurant.
