Whether we like it or not, people judge us on our table manners. We should therefore be aware of the things we should do and not do when we sit down to eat a meal. Unscramble the mixed-up words in the sentences below for some useful advice. (Type your answers in the boxes.)
1) Do not sit down on your own while everyone else is still standing. Generally, the group should TIS WODN together. (Unscramble)
