Activity 3 Interview another person Teaching guidelines
Learners must write the interview questions down before they interview the person of their choice. They should ask the person about activities that they did when they were much younger. However, they should not assume that the older person attended school. A good question to ask is what the older person did for fun when he or she was young. After the interview, the learner should write the answers down and report back to the class. Thereafter, the learner must write a short report about the interview. Remind learners to be respectful when they speak to older people, and to respond to the older person’s answers in a way that shows interest and that is polite.
Suggested answers Answers will differ from one learner to the next.
Extension activity
If learners are able to take or get a photograph of the person they interviewed, they can make a small poster that can be placed on the wall at the back of the class. The main headings on the poster, which can be handwritten or computer generated, can for example be ‘name’, ‘where he or she lived or worked’, and ‘interesting thing that happened to this person’.
Remedial activity
Learners who find it difficult to interview a person can be paired up with a friend. Activity 4 Bring an old object to school
Teaching guidelines
Learners must ask permission before they bring a special object to school. Encourage learners to bring items that are not particularly expensive to replace, and to keep the item on their person for the entire school day. If the item is of value, make provision for good security measures – they might need to leave it in the class for safekeeping. An alternative is to ask learners to draw the item at home, so that they do not have to bring it to school. Allow learners sufficient time to explain to their partner why the object is important to them, and to write their story down.
