"English in Action" Field Trip to Wolf Bay Restaurant
Thursday, October 5, 2023
The South Baldwin Literacy Council's "English in Action" ESL class took a field trip to the Wolf Bay Restaurant located here in Foley, AL. This field trip wrapped up our "restaurant" module for this class. First, we learned about dining etiquette, common phrases and vocabulary, and more in class. Then, Wolf Bay hosted us for a wonderful lunch where students could practice their skills. Chandra, the restaurant's General Manager, even gave a tour of the "back of the house"! We are grateful for our community's support of our programs.
