Welcome

Phones in your bags and bags on the rack :)

You'll need your student book & laptop

Tell each other what your article is going to be about!

Class rules

Use English as much as possible --> Mistakes = no problem

Listen to the speaker - whether it's me or someone else!

Respect, be nice, and don't laugh at each other

Quiet when working and fun when possible.

Homework = study; only HW is what you don't finish in class = be active

Keep laptops (half)closed when not in active use.

Think & discuss

By the end of this lesson, I can use reported speech.

1. How do you know who is talking and what they are saying when reading a book?

2. What do you think is the difference between direct and reported speech?

Footnotes

Discuss:

Have you ever come across footnotes?

What are they?

When/where do we use them?

Footnote

- placed with information you want to cite (bc it's someone else's words/ideas)

- appears on the bottom of the page = at the foot

- begins with 1 and are numbered throughout your essay/article = don't worry: Word does this for you ;)

- use it whenever you cite a book, article, data, online source...

- information separated by commas

1

Let's look at an example

In huiswerk, I shared this document with you (you can look at it later)

- the number is added after the period (.) or comma (,)

- Author’s First Last Name, Title, (Location: Publisher, year), page number

How to in WORD

Practice

Open the document that I shared with you

On the 2nd page, you'll find 3 quotes/paraphrases - create footnotes to go with them

You might have to use Google to find extra info ;)

Time to write 

Now go to trustworthy websites and do research for your article.

 

Read the assignment again (studiewijzer) and start planning the factual article about your chosen topic.

Use narrative tenses, used to/would.

Use the future forms at least 2x.

Use non-defining clauses at least 2x.

 Support your ideas/opinions with sources.

Structure

1. Title - must be catchy!

2. Body

Engage reader = address them

Use a range of vocab = don't repeat yourself

Refer to stats / data

Use linkers: add, contrast, result

3. Ending - summarise

What are the 3 steps of creating reported speech?

Ask a question if you have one.

Can you use reported speech to talk about what someone else has said?

Need more practice? Use these slides, video, and MEL to practice. To master reported speech, you need plenty of repetition!

Don't forget to start planning your article - what do you know about your topic, look up sources, quotes, data = make notes in your document & start writing!
