For students with the Lit book : Living Through Literature 1


SECONDARY 1 EXPRESS / NORMAL ACADEMIC (LITERATURE)

Lesson #1 (1.5hrs)

Lesson objective: To introduce students to the reading of unseen prose.

Resources: Textbook “Living through Literature 1”

Instructions to students:

1) Read pages 7 and 8: Poem "Mummy, Oh Mummy"
2) Complete all the questions on pages 9 - Questions 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Note Look at Question 3. The word ‘contradictory’ means ‘opposite of’. The mother asks her child to do completely opposite actions that makes the child less friendly to the environment. You have to pick 3 of these instructions and write them in the blanks.

3) Complete question 6 on page 10. It is a simple graphic organiser. You have to think only about Singapore and your own actions. Give me one reason why for each of the 4 actions.

NOTE WELL:
‘Quote’ means - pick out the example in the poem. This is the same as you had done for Matilda. So I know you can do this well.
