    • Expressing Preferences: Using verbs like Adorer (strong liking), Aimer (simple liking), and Détester (disliking), as well as stating dietary restrictions like Je suis végétarien.
    • Interactive Speaking: Dialogue phrases for table interactions, such as Passe-moi le sel and Encore un peu?.
  • Sub-Strand 4.2: Reading for Comprehension
    • Healthy vs. Unhealthy Food: Distinguishing between L'Alimentation Saine (e.g., vegetables, water) and C'est mauvais pour la santé (e.g., chips, sweets).
    • Reading a Menu: Understanding the structure of a French meal: L'Entrée (starter), Le Plat Principal (main course), Le Dessert, and Les Boissons.
    • Interpreting Recipes: Identifying ingredients and preparation verbs like Mélanger (to mix) and Cuire (to cook).
