OBJECTIVES:
Your teacher will assign you to role play one of the prompts below. You
have 30 minutes to prepare and 15 minutes to present. Make sure to
assign people to play the other characters mentioned in each scene.
Scene 1: While eating in the canteen, you go over the brochures of the tourist spot
for the field trip. You talk about various information about the location.
Scene 2: You decide on the final itinerary of the field trip and discuss the details such
as transportation, accommodation, meals, and itinerary.
Scene 3: You are tasked to present the final itinerary to the students’ parents during
the quarterly parents’ meeting.
Scene 4: Upon arrival at your destination, you talk to the hotel concierge about your
reservations. You inquire about breakfast schedules, hotel keys, extra beddings, and
room service.
Scene 5: You ask a police officer and a street vendor (on two different
instances)
for directions to the beach because the class is lost somewhere in town.
Scene 6: The class needs to eat in the nearest fast-food restaurant. After
taking all the orders from your classmates, you go to the counter to place
the orders. However, some of the orders are not available so you ask for
alternate combos from the fast-food crew, and you make decisions for the
rest of the class.
Scene 7: You have a free half day before your trip back home, so you
decide on what to do as members of the field trip committee. Your ideas
and suggestions clash, but ultimately everything is cleared out and you
present the final plan to your classmates.

e utterances: statements which enable the speaker to perform something just by stating it. In this manner, verbs that
execute the speech act
that they intend to effect are called performatives. A performative utterance said by the right person under the right

performative utterance.
