UNIT 1: How to be a winner LEARNING OBJECTIVES After the learners have completed this unit, they must be able to do the following: •

•

Listening and speaking Express your opinion on what winning means. Understand the views, opinions, emotions of others regarding the concept of being a winner. Listen critically and evaluate a speech. Use resources and reference material to find and select information for a speech. Practise and present the speech. Reading and viewing Read the article about how to present a good speech. Read the article about the different types of essays that can be written. Writing and presenting Write his/her own speech on one of the topics suggested in the portfolio book. Demonstrate your planning skills for the specific purpose, audience and context as suggested in the speech topic that you choose. Evaluate your own work and tweak the speech where necessary. Language structures and conventions Baseline exercise: revision of language structures done until last year: tenses, questions, negatives, tags and passives.

INTRODUCTION This unit is about winning and the influence that winning has on a person. You will think, talk and read about winning. You will be allowed to express your opinion about it in a speech. In this unit you also will be expected to do an exercise which will briefly revise language done in the previous grade, before embarking on a baseline exercise. Identify which aspects of this exercise you struggle with and concentrate on doing enough revision exercises regarding these aspects before you write the language test in week 9.

LESSON 1:

LISTENING AND SPEAKING

Have a discussion about winning. Is it important to win at all costs? What makes a winner? Are there different types of winners/winning? The aim of this exercise is to serve as a warm-up exercise to make the learners as comfortable as possible when speaking. Encourage them to

Facilitator’s Guide G10 ~ English First Additional Language: Language

allow you to speak your mind on the matter as well, so that they can practise listening to other opinion as well. 1.1

Pre-listening

Have a discussion with the learners on voicing our opinions in a responsible manner. Then talk about doing research on a topic which is really interesting and then organising ideas into a coherent speech. 1.2

Listening

You are now going to read a speech to the learners to illustrate how you can include research in your arguments. Ask them to listen carefully to see whether the person has actually made a valuable point.

What it takes to be number one Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while; you don't do things right once in a while; you do them right all of the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing. There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game, and that's first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay, and I don't ever want to finish second again. There is a second place bowl game, but it is a game for losers played by losers. It is and always has been an American zeal to be first in anything we do, and to win, and to win, and to win. Every time a football player goes to play his trade he's got to play from the ground up - from the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of him has to play. Some guys play with their heads. That's okay. You've got to be smart to be number one in any business. But more importantly, you've got to play with your heart, with every fibre of your body. If you're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second. Running a football team is no different than running any other kind of organisation – an army, a political party or a business. The principles are the same. The object is to win – to beat the other guy. Maybe that sounds hard or cruel. I don't think it is. It is a reality of life that men are competitive and the most competitive games draw the most competitive men. That's why they are there – to compete. The object is to win fairly, squarely, by the rules – but to win.

Facilitator’s Guide G10 ~ English First Additional Language: Language

And in truth, I've never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep down in his heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline. There is something in good men that really yearns for discipline and the harsh reality of head to head combat. I don't say these things because I believe in the “brute” nature of men or that men must be brutalised to be combative. I believe in God, and I believe in human decency. But I firmly believe that any man's finest hour – his greatest fulfilment to all he holds dear – is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle – victorious. – Coach Vincent T. Lombardi http://www.vincelombardi.com/number-one.html

1.3

Post-listening

Now discuss the speech with the learners. Encourage them to motivate why they regard the speech as being successful/unsuccessful. Ask questions and if necessary, read the speech with the learners again so that they can clearly see where the main statements are made. ACTIVITY 1: The learners must make a list of aspects which would make a speech successful. They may even use the internet to do research on the characteristics of a good speech. .

LESSON 2:

READING AND VIEWING

FOR THE CURIOUS The learners can be encouraged to read more examples of good speeches on the Internet. Some of these speeches do not follow the rules of a good speech, but are good anyway. Some of the speeches which might stimulate their minds are: “I have a dream” (Dr Martin Luther King Jr), speeches by Sir Winston Churchill, speeches by famous sports stars like Francois Pienaar, John Smit, Roger Federer, etc. 2.1

Pre-listening

The learners can now report back on the list of characteristics of a good speech they wrote in Activity 1. 2.2

Reading

Now read the passage “How to make a good speech” in the study guide.

Facilitator’s Guide G10 ~ English First Additional Language: Language

2.3

Post-reading

The learners will now be expected to write their own speeches which is to be delivered during week 3. Be sure to guide the learners to incorporate as many of the aspects contained in the passage about good speeches as possible. Also guide the learners in choosing an appropriate topic. Remember to bear the speaker’s interests and personality in mind when choosing topic. A very serious learner will find it difficult to write a speech which contains a lot of humour. Consult the addendum at the end of the facilitator’s guide for the marking grid which will be used to assess the prepared speech. Discuss this with the learners so that they know exactly what they will be getting marks for. They have a week to prepare for the speech. Do not write the speech for them, but you are welcome to assist by giving them advice for the improvement of the speech. Remind the learners that they should spend at least three days learning the speech and polishing the presentation. The biggest error that learners make when preparing a speech is to think that they can write and prepare it within two or less days. The key to the success of their speech will be whether they have practised the presentation sufficiently. ACTIVITY 2: Learners prepare a speech on a topic of their own choice.

LESSON 3: 3.1

WRITING AND PRESENTING

Pre-writing the essay

Read through the notes on writing an essay. Emphasise to the learners that when they have to choose a topic, they should keep in mind what type of essay they will be comfortable in writing. It is not easy for everyone to for example write an argumentative essay. A learner who has difficulties in expressing an opinion should therefore not be influenced by the topic which sounds interesting to write an essay in which he/she would be expected to argue a point. 3.2

Writing and presenting

Planning the essay: • Advise the learners to first identify at least two topics which they feel comfortable writing about. They should then make a mind map in which they write down all possible ideas. • The ideas should then be organised into possible paragraphs. • Before starting to write down the first draft, the learners must decide what the point is that they will try to make in the essay as a whole.

Facilitator’s Guide G10 ~ English First Additional Language: Language

•

Decide what the link between the introductory and closing paragraph will be. ACTIVITY 3 Learners write the first draft of their essay on a topic of their own choice.

3.3

Post-writing

The first draft of the essay can be marked by the facilitator or another learner. This is an informal marking so errors should be indicated but no marks awarded. After it has been marked you should give the learners some advice as to how they can improve on it. Let them follow the checklist given in the study guide before writing the final draft. Note that the learners may not merely correct the language errors that you have indicated on the first draft. The whole essay should be an improvement on the first draft. The learners must clearly have improved on the following aspects: • Content – streamlined the plot (narrative essay), all arguments, are backed up with evidence (argumentative essay), improved on arguments, etc. • The sentence construction – no clumsy, long sentences that don’t make sense • Spelling, punctuation, tenses and paragraphing. IMPORTANT When marking the first draft of all essays or transactional pieces, DO NO CORRECT THE ERRORS FOR THE LEARNERS. Just underline the errors and discuss them with the learners. Encourage them to use a dictionary to correct spelling errors.

The learners must now write the final draft of Task 2 under controlled circumstances. You as facilitator may no longer advise them on how to improve on this piece of writing. ACTIVITY 4: Both the first and the final draft of the essay must be handed in (and eventually filed in the portfolio). Only the marks for the final draft of the essay will count for the formal assessment for the portfolio.

Facilitator’s Guide G10 ~ English First Additional Language: Language

LESSON 4:

LANGUAGE REVISION

In this lesson the learners are going to revise the different tenses. You are going to supervise the learners doing a baseline exercise as part of their revision of previous years’ work. Don’t assist the learners if they have any questions. The idea of this baseline exercise is to identify which part of the work they find problematic. Read through the notes of the tenses with the learners. ACTIVITY 5: 5.1 The heading of the passage means that Graeme Smith has decided to stop playing professional cricket for his country. (2) 5.2 International means “between countries”. (1) 5.3 Smith has been contemplating making this decision for nearly a year and now he has finally made his final decision. The decision is not easy, because it is a life changing one which he may regret later as there is no turning back. (If a learner has given a logical, well-substantiated answer based on the passage, credit him/her accordingly.) (3) 5.4 It means Smith has given his all for his country, the team and the game. (2) 5.5 South African Broadcasting Corporation and South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee. (2) 5.6 Which game was the most important one in your career? (Consider other possibilities as well). (0 if no question mark.) (1) 5.7 I don’t think I have reached all my goals in life yet. (2) 5.8 Since I saw Graeme at Newlands I knew he has been one of the best players. (2) 5.9 Smith said that he had a young family to consider, and he had felt that retiring at Newlands would be the best way to end because he has (general truth) called that place his home since he had been 18 years old. (10) 5.10 It’s a culture that one can be very proud of, isn’t it? (1) 5.11 After Graeme Smith had announced that he was going to retire from cricket, the social media went crazy. Everybody wanted to know why he had decided to call it a day at this critical time. He is surely the best captain we have ever seen in this country. (7) 5.12 media – noun final – adjective (2) [35]

Facilitator’s Guide G10 ~ English First Additional Language: Language

LESSON 5:

SPEAKING

The learners now had a week to prepare for their speeches. Some learners are very nervous when delivering a speech so it is important to try to set them at ease. ACTIVITY 6: Learners deliver the speech to apply what they have learnt.

ACTIVITY 7:

1. 2.

People who win emphasise their strong points and not their weak points. Past indefinite Everybody did a lot of things badly yesterday/last week. Present continuous Everybody is doing a lot of things badly at this moment. Present perfect Everybody has just done a lot of things badly. Past continuous Everybody was doing a lot of things badly at that moment. Present perfect continuous Everybody has been doing a lot of things badly for a while now.

(2) (2) (2) (2) (2) (2)

3.1 3.2 3.3 3.4 3.5

My potential is blocked by my weakness. Your strengths must be focused on (by you). A habit of winning was developed by him. My focus is being blocked by my habits. The art of cultivating strengths have been mastered by winners. (1 mark for sentence 1 mark for tense identification)

(2) (2) (2) (2) (2)

4.1 4.2 4.3 4.4 4.5 4.6 4.7 4.8 4.9 4.10

You haven’t worked on your strengths, have you? You developed the habit of winning, didn’t you? My habits are blocking my focus, aren’t they? You must allow space for mistakes, mustn’t you? Winners can’t work on weaknesses, can they? She works very hard every day, doesn’t she? He didn’t focus on his strengths enough, did he? They weren’t giving their full focus, were they? The men had developed a positive attitude, hadn’t they? I am winning by far at the moment, aren’t I? Pay special attention to 4.10. This tag is an exception.

(1) (1) (1) (1) (1) (1) (1) (1) (1) (1)

Facilitator’s Guide G10 ~ English First Additional Language: Language

I am … (becomes) … aren’t I? (The reason for this is because there is not a word like amn’t.) I can also be: I am…am I not? 5.1 5.2 5.3 5.4 5.5

Has he won many titles in his life? Has she been breaking swimming records for the past year? Did the Springboks lose against the All Blacks in the World Cup? What do winners know? Am I a very dedicated sportsman?

(1) (1) (1) (1) (1)

Pay special attention to the following three aspects: When changing a sentence into a question, learners must make sure that they use the same tense as the sentence. LEARNERS MAY NOT RANDOMLY USE ANY TENSE TO CHANGE THE SENTENCE INTO A QUESTION. Learners must use the same verb in the question and not randomly use a different verb to change the sentence into a question. Learners must be very careful not to use question words at the beginning of a question if they have not been specifically asked to do so. Question 5.4 is the case in point, because a question word (What) was put in brackets to clearly indicate that the sentence must start with a question word. 6.1 6.2 6.3 6.4

Don’t/Do not focus on traits you can’t correct. You don’t/do not need to cultivate your weaknesses. They haven’t/have started with a plan of action yet. They didn’t/did not leave for the event early this morning.

(1) (1) (2) (1)

NOTE: The learners must stick to the same tense the question was asked in when doing negatives. 7.1 7.2 7.3 7.4

She tried to do her work first and then she wrote her blog. (2) After she had written her blog, she took a bath. (2) At that moment he was listening to a speaker who was talking about strategies on winning. (3) She fell while practising. (1)

NOTE: The learners must change the time word to suit the tense if it needs to be changed. See 7.3. [48]

UNIT 2: Making lifelong friends LEARNING OBJECTIVES After the learners have completed this unit, they must be able to do the following: •

•

Listening and speaking Share ideas, opinions and experiences. Use turn-taking conventions in a conversation. Reading and viewing Separate main ideas from supporting details. Determine the meaning of words in context and expand vocabulary. Writing and presenting Analyse the structure of a summary. Analyse the structure, language features and register of the shorter transactional texts discussed. Write and edit a summary. Draft, revise, edit and proofread the first draft of a transactional text. Present a diary entry/ postcard or a dialogue/interview and a short speech. Language structures and conventions Revise the apostrophe. Revise reported speech.

INTRODUCTION In this unit you will be discussing lifelong friendships with the learners. Discuss the lifespan of some friendships, true friendships, wrong friends, etc. The learners will read a passage about what it takes to be a lifelong friend. The learners will learn the characteristics of a summary, a dialogue, a diary entry and a postcard. The reported speech (indirect) will also be revised, as well as the use of an apostrophe.

Facilitatorâ€™s Guide G10 ~ English First Additional Language: Language

LESSON 6: 6.1

LISTENING AND SPEAKING

Prepare to speak

In your discussion about friendship, you should emphasise the fact that we all need friends, but that some friends are loyal and there for life, while others are destructive and cause a lot of pain and heartache. Good friends are scarce and must be cherished. Bad ones must best be left alone. 6.2

Sharing your opinions about friendship

Discuss the pictures of celebrities with the learners. Let them tell you about the celebrities if they know them. Have an in-depth discussion about true friendship and what it takes to be a true friend. Emphasise taking turns during a conversation.

LESSON 7: 7.1

READING AND VIEWING

Pre-reading

When you discuss the format of a magazine article, take out a few old magazines and let the learners page through them. Ask them about magazines that they read regularly.
