Facilitator’s Guide G10 ~ English Home Language: Language
PREFACE Dear facilitator, Welcome to the Grade 10 course for English Home Language. When learners are in Grade 12, they are expected to know all the technical work (literary terms, language) and skills that they studied from Grade 8. For this reason, it is suggested that learners keep a summary book up to the end of Grade 12. They can make their own summaries and notes in it. It is important that learners practise comprehension and interpretative skills, as well as writing skills. Do not regard the answers in the facilitator’s guide as the only ones that are correct. As long as any point made is substantiated from the text, it may be accepted. Encourage learners to read as widely as possible and make their own comments on any questions raised in the articles that they read. They must also be able to recognise any techniques that are used in a text to achieve a certain effect. Use the questions and answers in this course as an example. PORTFOLIO WORK Download the portfolio tasks for Grade 10 from my.Impaq. Make sure that it is done neatly, and that learners keep it in a file until the end of Grade 12. TESTS AND EXAMINATIONS Learners are expected to know all theoretical work that was done since the beginning of the year. Since it is impossible to repeat everything each year, the notes in the summary book are very important for the following years. Learners will need these as a quick reference for future exercises and tests. At the end of terms 2 and 4 learners will write full examinations. Paper 1
Paper 2
Comprehension, summary and language Literature
Reading for comprehension, summary, visual literacy (which includes cartoons and advertising), using language correctly Poetry (both prescribed and unseen), prescribed novel and drama.

The man who was injured had to be rushed to hospital. If a boy likes a girl he will tell her. May I please have an apple? He is a famous lawyer. It is a universal truth that people want to be respected. I hope to study at a university one day. It is an honour to meet you, Mr President. I have but an hour to speak with you. The truth of the matter is that he committed the murder. It is simply one of the best films I have ever seen. It is the story of a rich man who falls in love with a poor girl. My brother graduated from the University of Pretoria in 1996. In the past, one had to go all the way to the post office to post a letter. Mozart was a musical genius! He is a true gentleman.

Activity 2: MEMORANDUM 1.
Never assume to know the dress code solely by the tone of the occasion or the invitation. I did this recently, and a lack of thorough research and my “No, it’ll be fine” approach backfired on me in a most spectacular manner. The event was the 25th anniversary performance (“Two Nights Only!” said the invitation) of Old Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Albert hall in London. Before I continue with my story, I must point out – for the sake of what’s left of my repute – that I in no way like musicals. Watching people dance merrily with floor mops and sing instead of talk makes me blush frantically.
2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5 2.6 2.7 2.8 2.9 2.10
The men must’ve been very hungry since they ate all the food. The girl neglected to complete her essay. The boy forgot his jacket at his friend’s house. My mother and I are very alike; we both enjoy going to the cinema. One must never forget one’s manners. The teacher shouted at the learner: “You should listen when I speak!” Whose book is this? The boys lied to their parents. Who ate the last piece of chocolate cake? You have no one but yourself to be angry with; it’s all your fault!

LESSON 3: Reading for comprehension Activity 12: MEMORANDUM 1.1.1 Many people believe that Cape Town is the birthplace of the South African nation when, in fact, it is not.

(3) 1.2 The expression refers to Table Mountain.

1.3.1 She means that the quality of life in Cape Town exceeds the quality of life in other South African cities. In Cape Town you can live in sync with nature easily; you have time to go for a hike or a walk or a swim, as you are not always working and rushing from point A to point B. (1) 1.3.2 Lion’s Head Platteklip Gorge (2) 1.4 Her mention of this special moment personalises the text and makes it all the more believable and enticing. It leads one to believe that in Cape Town memories and moments are made. (2) 1.5 It refers to the idea of living together in the same space peacefully and respectfully, each allowing the other a place under the same sun. (2) 1.6.1 True (1) 1.6.2 Table Mountain is one of what geologists call the four spinner wheels – energy centres of the earth. (1) 1.7.1 Yes, “a lot of Christian fundamentalists, and others who are threatened by change, felt strongly enough about it to protest in a not entirely peaceful way.” (2) 1.7.2 It means that one and one’s beliefs or opinions have not been taken seriously. (2) 1.8.1 Jan Smuts and Nelson Mandela. (2) 1.8.2 Former South African President Nelson Mandela gave his first speech after being released from prison in Cape Town.

2.4 The writer is of the opinion that South Africa’s correctional services are not strict enough; it is too easy for criminals to get out of jail.

(2) 2.6 The writer refers to the ladies as “big-boned women”. He is trying to avoid being disrespectful or critical of their being overweight or fat and is trying to find a polite way of stating that they are rather large. (3) 2.7 The bum shimmy.

2.8.1 He refers to the taxi and the taxi driver. 2.8.2 Metaphor
(2) (1)
2.9 The no-sleeping-in-the-taxi rule is not one of the writer’s favourite rules (as is evident in the question he asks about mothers sleeping in a taxi); he is stating the exact opposite of what he means. (2) 2.10.1 The writer is of the opinion that taxi drivers think too highly of themselves and believe that they can break the rules of the road as they please – as if it is only theirs. (2) 2.10.2 Their lives are put in danger every time they get into a taxi; they don’t necessarily encourage the reckless driving and may be grateful when they are reprimanded every now and again. (2) 2.10.3 The writer is grateful and reflexive. This is evident in his choice of words (e.g. “Thankfully, the god of taxi commuters everywhere is a living god”) and his statement of what taxi commuters are truly feeling and thinking the moment taxi drivers get fined. (2) 2.11 It is appropriate, as the text is about the writer’s experience of taxi commuting. The events described and the facts included are negative and paint a gloomy picture. The word “hell” is a good metaphor for the writer’s taxi experiences – once you’re in, you’re in; name-calling; being forced to squeeze in the backseat because he was skinny; fearing for your life because of taxi drivers’ disregard for the rules of the road.
