  3. How to make a summary (mind-map) Mind-maps help you remember things because you see the bigger picture visually. Step 1: Read through your work Step 2: Find the topic (put it in the centre) Step 3: Underline main ideas (put them around the topic) Step 4: Use key-words to explain the main ideas Look at the following slide for mind-mapping guidelines Remember: You can use min-maps to summarise large units of work for all your subjects

  4. What strategies do you use to read/understand texts?

  5. Active reading strategies • Visualize • Clarify • Question • Predict • Connect • Evaluate

  7. Writing strategies • Lead with your main idea • Write long and short sentences • Vary sentence types and structures • Cut the clutter • Read aloud when you revise • Actively edit and proofread • Use a dictionary (Adapted from: Life Orientation for the real world, p.61-62) Follow the “Hamburger” method on the next slide to compose a well-structured paragraph

  9. The Topic Sentence (Top Bun) • Very first sentence of your paragraph. • Always needs to be indented. • Tells what your paragraph is going to be about.

A third reason I love to teach is because I love seeing a student understand something new. Finally, I love to teach because I love to be around kids. These are just a few reasons I love to teach.

  10. The First Detail (Lettuce) • Should not be the most important detail. • Needs to follow directly after the topic sentence. • Needs to be full of good “lettucy” details!
