What happened to Lulu in 5 As Syafie today

Date: 4th May 2016
Double period

In view of the coming mid-year exam next week, I decided to carry out some beyond the text activities based on the poem "What has happened to Lulu?" My students surprised me with their response particularly the telephone conversation between Lulu and her mother! The following is the rough lesson plan:

ACTIVITY	STEPS	MATERIALS
1.    SET INDUCTION      (5 mins)	1.    Write one word to describe Lulu.	Post-it notes
2.    Sequencing the poem      (10 mins)	2.    Sequencing the poem	Strips and envelopes
3.    Role-play      (50 mins)	3.    A telephone conversation between Lulu and her mother	Ppt.
4.    Game      (10 mins)	4.   Wheel of Fortune	Post it notes Score keeper

For the role-play, provide the following situation:

THREE WEEKS LATER...

Three weeks have passed and nothing has been heard of Lulu. 

Infact, she has found somewhere to live, made new friends and 

found a job. She decides it is time to phone home. Why? She 

doesn't intend to return yet. How will she feel as she dials?

 What is her mother 

doing when she calls? What is her reaction?

The students were given about 30 mins to prepare the telephone conversation. I need to compress the files first before uploading...perhaps in another post :)


Here's the link to the powerpoint I used.
Happy teaching!

One group was able to rearrange the strips correctly based on the poem...quite challenging!

Mind the dirty board! It could not be erased due to permanent ink...

Those who can DO, Those who can do more TEACH
