So once you are confident with all this you are ready to do a pancake demo in your own class. Bon appétit. Activity 2 You might like to try mixing these linguistic ingredients together. Using the instructions and the ingredients how many different instructions can you give? Earlier in the recipe you learnt how to say take a bowl prenez un bol, so take the flour - prenez la farine. In the recipe you learnt pour the batter versez la pâte so pour the milk - versez le lait How many more can you think of? We think there are at least 10. Can you find them all? (Check on the pdf file.) Once you are confident with one recipe it is quite easy to use the language in other recipes. You might be able to find a simple French recipe book or examples online and try and read them or even try out some new recipes. Once you have done this activity with your class they could then give a demonstration to the rest of the class or in assembly or even make a video of themselves making pancakes. Remember to invite us along. Bon appétit! Mmmm délicieux!
