KEY CONCEPTS
FOCUS STRUCTURES:
I'm in Grade 9 this year, and I'm president of the student council at my school.
In December, we decided to raise money for an organization that provides food for poor people in our city.
We sold tickets and, in the end, we made about $300. During student council meetings, we have to work together, but it's not always easy for us to reach an agreement.
Step 1: Present
CLASS WORK: Dig In and Think About It
Discuss the title of Lesson 38 (Making School a Better Place) and the Dig In as a class.
Teacher: We have a great school. And even though we love our school, there are always ways we can improve. What do you think we can improve at our school How can we improve it
Students: We need to improve our library. We need more new books. We can raise money and buy new books or ask bookstores to donate books to our school library.
Teacher: Good idea. Now, in order to raise the money or ask for a donation, we must be organized and create a plan. A student council is a group of students that discusses possible changes and improvements they can make in their school, and then they make a plan.
2)Discuss the Think About It questions and explain some of the mastery phrases.
Teacher: Is there a student council in our school What does it do
Allow several students to respond.
Teacher: Is it always easy working in groups What are some challenges that you might face when you work in a group
Students: Sometimes there are disagreements between group members. This can be a challenge. Teacher: That's right. Why is it a challenge
Students: A group can only work well if they can get along and work together. If people in the group are fighting, they cannot work together and they cannot get work done.
Teacher: Very good. When you work in a group, it is important that you all do your best to work together. Write the phrase reach an agreement on the board. Explain.
If there is a dispute, you must try to reach an agreement by listening to one another and trying to understand one another. To reach an agreement means that everyone involved in the decision agrees. We are all different. That is what makes this world so beautiful and interesting, but our differences can sometimes cause us to have disputes. We must work together to resolve our disputes in a peaceful and positive way. In the end, peace can only be achieved if we work together.
Write the phrase in the end on the board. Explain. What do I mean when I say "in the end" I mean eventually or upon reflection. Now let's read Lesson 38 and find out how Danielle helps to make her school a better place.
Step 2: Read
PAIR/CLASS WORK: Let's Do It! No.1
1) Have the students read Lesson 38 and answer the true or false questions with a partner.
2)Discuss the answers as a class. Correct any false statements.
3)Go over the mastery words and phrases for this lesson.
Step 3: Explain
CLASS WORK: Conjunctions (Learn to Learn) 1) Explain what conjunctions are and how they are used.
Conjunctions: A conjunction is a word or phrase that shows the relationship between two words, phrases or clauses.
and is used to show an agreement between words/clauses
EXAMPLE
She is happy and excited.
In this example, "and" is used to show the positive agreement between the two positive words "happy"and "excited".
but is used to show a disagreement between words/clauses
EXAMPLE
She is happy but nervous.
In this example, "but" is used to show disagreement between the words"happy"(a positive word)and "nervous"(a negative word). so is used to show a reason between words/ clauses
EXAMPLE
I went to sleep early, so that I could wake up early.
In this example, "so" is used to show that the reason for going to sleep early is to wake up early.
or is used to show agreement or disagreement between words/clauses
EXAMPLE
I don't like blue or yellow.
In this example, "or" is used to show agreement between the fact that both the colours "blue" and "yellow" are not liked.
2)Have the students complete the Conjunctions worksheet.
1. I usually ride my bike to school, but today I am walking.
agreement/disagreement/reason 2. I like strawberries and chocolate. agreement/disagreement/reason
3. I don't do well in math or science class. agreement/disagreement/reason
4. I studied hard, so that I could do well on the exam.
agreement/disagreement/reason
5. She is good at drawing, but she is not very good at cooking.
agreement/disagreement/reason
6. I enjoy playing sports and listening to music. agreement/disagreement/reason
7. After dinner, I go to my room to read and relax.
agreement/disagreement/reason
8. It's raining outside, so I think I'll take an umbrella.
agreement/disagreement/reason
9. He is always smiling, but he is never happy. agreement/disagreement/reason
10. We can go to the movies tonight or tomorrow night.
agreement/disagreement/reason
Practice creating your own sentences using the conjunctions"and", "but", "or"and "so".
1.________________________________________
2.________________________________________
3.________________________________________
3)Check the answers as a class. Step 4: Task
GROUP WORK: Let's Do It! No.4
1)Try this activity on the board as a class before you divide the class into groups.
2)Divide the class into groups of three. Student A and B each write one sentence on a slip of paper. Student A and B's sentences should somehow complement each other. Students should refer to the example in the student book. Student C then joins the two sentences that Student A and B wrote with the appropriate conjunction.
EXAMPLE
Student A I like cookies. Student B I don't like cake. Student C
I like cookies, and I don't like cake. I like cookies, but I don't like cake.
3)Students should do the exercise a few times until they've each had a turn to be Student A, B and C. 4)Have the students present their final sentences to the class.
CLASS CLOSING 1)Complete Let's Do It! No.3.
Students do the exercise independently. Then check and correct their answers in groups.
2)Assign homework:
Read Lesson 38 and write down all of the sentences in the lesson that use conjunctions. Then indicate whether those conjunctions are to show agreement, disagreement or reason.
Complete Let's Do It! No.2
EXTENSION
CLASS WORK: Spell It
Play Spell It to review any vocabulary and conjunctions.
1) Divide the class into two large teams. Write blanks for any word or phrase across the blackboard (leave space between words in phrases).
2)The teams take turns guessing letters that go in the blanks.
3) You or a volunteer from the class write correct guesses in the correct blanks. A team may guess the word or phrase before all the letters are filled in, but must then correctly spell the entire word or phrase from the beginning. The first team to do this wins. Sample Words and Phrases:
I didn't enjoy the movie, but my mom and my sister did.
Barak Obama is the president of the United States. The two countries made an agreement not to fight anymore.
Animals provide us with food and materials.
* See the "Games"section at the back of this guide for further instructions on how to play.
