Description
Make food vocabulary meaningful with a French menu activity!
Looking for a creative way for students to use their French food vocabulary beyond another worksheet?
In this activity, students put their vocabulary to work by creating a menu for an imaginary restaurant. They choose what their restaurant will serve, organize their food and drinks, add prices, and give their restaurant its own details.
The result is a personalized French-language product that students can be proud of—and a great opportunity to practice vocabulary in context.
What will students will practice?
As students create their menus, they work with:
- French food and drink vocabulary
- French articles
- Prices in euros
- Restaurant-related language
- Days and hours of operation
- Written French
- Creative vocabulary use
Students can use the provided vocabulary or add their own food and drink choices, making the activity easy to adapt to different levels of French.
What’s included:
This resource includes everything you need to guide students through the activity:
- Student directions in French and English
- Pre-writing pages to help students plan their menus
- A French food vocabulary list with English translations
- Sample menu
- Teacher comment page in French and English
- Several rubric options for grading
Different versions of the activity allow you to have students use definite articles, partitive articles, or no articles, depending on what you’ve taught.
A flexible French classroom activity
This activity works especially well as a culminating task after students have learned French food vocabulary. It can also be used for vocabulary review, independent work, or a creative writing activity.
The completed menus can be displayed in the classroom or used as the starting point for additional speaking practice about what students would order at a restaurant.
