Extension activities: Choosing a gift
Have students work together in pairs to
consider the following scenario:
Your school is hosting a group of visiting students
from Indonesia. You have been asked to purchase or make an appropriate
gift for one student. Describe what you would buy or make, and why that
would be appropriate from both an Indonesian and Australian perspective.
Create a role play / dialogue between you and the student when you give
them the gift. Then work with another pair of students to improve and
then practise your dialogue.
Make students aware of the assessment 'criteria' before they begin
creating their dialogues. As a class, view the role plays and discuss the
similarities and differences in language used in role plays.
Assessment of learning:
Read / view gift-giving dialogues, and assess the
extent to which students:
- use language appropriate to gift-giving
- use appropriate greetings and forms of address
- create mood and feeling (eg through use of
adjectives)
- create original text by inserting new words into
familiar sentences or by extending rehearsed language patterns to new
context
- use correct punctuation, such as full stops,
capitals, question marks, commas
- plan and edit own work
- choose an appropriate gift, and explain why it is
appropriate
- use correct pronunciation, stress patterns,
intonation & phrasing
- monitor own language and attempt self correction
- use gestures and facial expressions to convey
meaning
