5B had another role-play today! A Hari Raya Open House....
Pupils were asked to sit in a group of 5. One of them will act as the host and the rest will be the guests. Before the role play, I have written a script for them to act out. I will type it later here... ;)
In the script, I include the language to use when you want to extend, accept and decline an invitation. These are adapted from the BBC Learning English website which I found very useful and I think I will be a frequent there.
The section requests and offers certainly applied to the current teaching and learning. The expressions are very useful in aiding young ESL learners in exploring their horizon as a proficient second language user.
As a follow up task tomorrow, I would love if the pupils take some time to go through these sites and listen to how the native speakers use these expression. Some would think my approach is rather disorganize but I believe by teaching them first in the ESL context will prepare them better to confront the language in other context. Confidence is easier to develop when you started off with something familiar.
For my pupils, here what you have to do for the follow up activities....
1. Please click on the link below.
2. Download the media and listen.
3. Scroll down and answer the question.
4. Write down your answer in the comments.

It is interesting to explore on how to describe people or animal. By looking at this picture, one can make variety of sentences. However, for examination purposes, the description of people and animal is limited to the physical attributes. Assumption are not allowed. Therefore pupils need to be careful of their word choice and limitation.
Some of the words that can be used are:
Physical: Short, Tall, Clean, Dirty, Fat, Thin, Fair, Dark, Sad,
Colours: Red, blue, yellow...etc
Patterns: Stripes, polka dots, checkered shirt
Hmm....why don't you give a try?
Please write down the correct sentences for Question One. If you have more than one correct sentence please write all of it. Some of you might have mistakes here and there in the sentences therefore please correct it first before posting.
Thank you!
