An English afternoon tea at Fortnum & Mason’s. Scenariusz lekcji

Abstract

"A foreign language lesson is inextricably linked with a lesson on a new culture. The overriding goals of learning a language should be communication and the ability to apply the given structures and learned words and phrases in a particular situation. This lesson plan presents one of the UK’s flagship traditions - afternoon tea. There are many voices pointing out that the teacher should use authentic materials, and integrate the language lesson together with the culture. The scenario presented below fits into this rhetoric - it virtually takes the learner to a London tea room, Fortnum & Mason, where the student learns the vocabulary for booking a table and ordering an afternoon tea. In addition, they learn about elements of British culture - the traditions of tea drinking and celebrating afternoon tea together."
