Memorandum

  • Learners tell the class about something that happened when they were still very young. Ask them to interview a parent or grandparent. Let them tell the class about their experiences (Hist. 2.1). Encourage them to bring from home something which was used by Grandpa/Grandma very long ago (Hist. 3.3).
  • Divide the glass into groups. Each group has to choose and dramatise one of the stories told by their grandparents (A & C 1.3; 2.7).
  • Each learner paints a picture of him/herself. Use a variety of materials for the clothes, hair and eyes (e.g. cloth, grass, magazines, etc. Draw a decorated frame round the picture, using different forms and colours. Let them show and explain it to the rest of the class (A & C 1.9; 1.10; 2.6; 3.7).
  • Each learner brings a photograph of their family to school. Show it to the class and compare the ages and the family members. Make them aware of words (vocabulary) like old, young, middle-aged, etc. See work sheet (Hist. 2.2).
  • Discussing the pictures: A family busy with their daily activities. Discuss ways in which to demonstrate to your family that you care for them. Also discuss what type of behaviour hurts others. First discuss the terms ‘negative’ and ‘positive’ with them and then ask them to say what they experience as negative and as positive. Colour the work sheet.
