Worksheet #6

Distribute Worksheet #6 with the following directions:

『であい』の7人の高校生が、あなたのクラスに来ます。クラスのメンバーとなかよくなるように、パーティーをけいかくします。どんな食べ物をじゅんびしますか。7人が好きな食べ物やクラスメートが好きな食べ物を考えて、どんな食べ物、どんな飲み物をじゅんびしたらいいか、そうだんしましょう。

The seven high school students from the photos will visit your class next week. You want to plan a party for them. Based on what you know about their food preferences (likes and dislikes) decide what dishes and beverages you will prepare and serve.

Variation:
(1) Write an invitation to the party in Japanese.
(2) Plan a real party. Have seven students role play the seven Deai students and talk with their classmates in Japanese.
(3) Plan and actually hold a real party inviting people from other cultural backgrounds (including Japanese if there are any) who are living in the community.
