Lesson Type: Writing

Level: Intermediate to Advanced (B1 - C2)

Lesson length: 90 minutes

Summary: This is a personalized, communicative writing lesson in which students will first read a few sample “Yelp” restaurant reviews to become comfortable with the language and style of an authentic review. They will then use these as models to write a review of a restaurant they've recently visited. By the end of the lesson, the class will have produced a collection of restaurant reviews and recommendations to comment on. If you’re looking for a fun, “real-world” way to teach writing, this is the lesson for you!

This lesson includes a detailed lesson plan, the full PPT presentation, and all other necessary materials, including a Google doc template where students can post their reviews (with space pictures and comments!)
