Learning tasks if you are isolating

If you are having issues logging into Google Classrooms, please make sure you leave me a message here so that I can try and help or let Miss Kondwani know.

This is what we are doing in class at the moment:

English

Activities:

1. Learning the text. You could act it out to the adults in your house or learn it with actions.
2. Write questions that you had when you were reading through the text. Examples; What is special about the friend? Why were they not passing to her?
3. Make some changes to the text. We thought about changing it to a basketball game where the new character was not very good until the end. Try writing down you new poem.

Talk us through it, Charlotte

Well I shouldn’t’ve been playin’ really 
Only there to watch me brother
My friend fancies his friend, y’know.
Anyway they was a man short.

Stay out on the wing, they said
Give ‘em something to think about.
So I did that for about an hour;
Never passed to me or anything.

The ball kind of rebounded to me.
I thought, I’ll have a little run with it.
I mean, they wasn’t passin’ to me
Was they? So off I went.

I ran past the first boy
He sort of fell over.
It was a bit slippery on that grass
I will say that for him.

Two more of ‘em come at me
Only they sort of tackled each other
Collided – arh.*I kept going.
There was this great big fat boy.

One way or another I kicked it 
Through his legs and run round him.
That took a time. Me brother
Was shouting, Pass it to me, like.

Well like I said, I’d been there an hour.
They never give me a pass
Never even spoke to me
Or anything. So I kept going.

Beat this other boy somehow
Then there was just the goalie.
Out he came, spreadin’ himself
As they say. I was really worried.

I thought he was going to hug me.
So I dipped me shoulder like they do
And the goalie moved one was, y’know
And I slammed it in the net.

Turned out afterwards it was the winner.
The manager said I was very good.
