Welcome back, everyone! Planning activities around this craptastic book is one of the more deflating parts ofcoming back to work after summer vacation. The good news: we're halfway through it! Fighting!

Here are similar lessons from other textbooks.

For Here or  To Go?
What Will You Have?

Here's a Battleship worksheet (in both *.doc and *.pdf formats) using the expressions in the textbook.

Here are some of my presentations.

1. Key Expressions PPT
2. Role play with Spongebob and Patrick
3. Unscramble the food name game
4. Reading clap game (students read some sentences while doing corresponding actions)

LOL when I was looking for ideas for this lesson I wasn't logged into Waygook and didn't see that huynhln1 had included a Powerpoint in her post! I ended up editing a bomb game I found on this board and making a different "Durian Game." Oh well, it was nice to be productive for a change!  Use the same rules for this game as huynhln1 suggests: students order as many times as they want but they lose all their points if they get a durian.

To get the kids excited for the game I showed my students pictures of durian off Google Images, asked if any of them had eaten durian before and why it was famous. I showed them this "How smelly is the durian?" video as well.

I wrote a simple, fun restaurant song to teach 'Can I please have a/some ____' I realise the key expression is different but maybe some teachers will find it helpful.
