Morning all,
Today I want you to re-cap what we did on Monday to ensure you fully understand it, and then do some wider research tasks through TED Talks (and I'm going to get you set up on TED Ed, more on this in a bit).
Firstly, click here to access Monday's PowerPoint. Read over your notes and ensure you you understand the concepts and the different studies. Research them online if you need more info.
Next, complete the writing task we started on Monday on your blogs. No more than 3-4 paragraphs.
When you have done that, watch this TED Talk on Sociolinguistics andthen summarise on your blogs, with a few points on how this relates to the theories and studies we looked at on Monday.
The last task you need to do is to sign up for Ted Ed by following this link . Once you make an account, I can then send you links to relevant TED talks with accompanying questions, which you can complete either on your phone or in our computer room lessons.
When you have signed up, follow this link and watch the video, "Does Grammar Matter?".
Then complete the 'Think' questions - ensure you complete all of these as the responses will be sent directly back to me and I want them in before the end of the lesson. Anyone who does not complete these will be in supervised study. Then, read through the 'Dig Deeper' material, and finally read through the 'Discuss' section. When you have read through 'Discuss', write the questions on your blog and develop a short response (1 or 2 paragraphs) based on your own ideas and the responses already on the page.
This should take up the whole lesson, and then tomorrow we will be starting Language & Occupation.
Any issues, come see me.
