We live in a day and age where your can see and hear a lot about your body and your health. In the end your character is of course way more important but…you do have a body and it is wise to take care of it.
During this lesson you will be making a Body&Health magazine. Because of the upcoming Reading&Writing test you will practise your reading- and writing skills. Learning a language is all about WORDS. That’s why you’ll learn and use new words as well. And to build sentences, you need grammar. So we will have a look at some basic grammar as well.
De onderstaande antwoorden moet je zelf nakijken; vergelijk jouw antwoorden met de goede
antwoorden, en geef aan in welke mate jouw antwoorden correct zijn.
To write a magazine you first have to read about the topic.
Below you find 4 topics:
Parts of the body
Keeping fit
Doing Sports
Health problems
Each week you and your groupmembers will look for articles on one of the subjects above. In week one, you will read about subject one: Parts of the body. In week 2: Keeping fit. Etcetera....
Assignment:
Look for 1 article on the internet.
Copy-paste the articles into a Word-document. DON'T forget to copy the LINK of the SOURCE as well!
Write a summary in Dutch of about 5-7 sentences. Use this summary-sheet to help.
Discuss your summaries in your group. Decide on what information you will use in this week's article.
Copy-paste all summaries in one word-document. Hand in the word-doc when ready. Your teacher will tell you when and where.
Writing about body & health
Now you have read articles about these 4 subjects:
Parts of the body
Keeping fit
Doing Sports
Health problems
You are ready to start writing! Your teacher will divide you into groups of 3 or 4 pupils. Each one of you will write 1 article about the four subjects.
De taakverdeling is als volgt: per 2 weken....
.... schrijft 1 persoon een artikel
.... zorgt 1 persoon voor de opmaak van het artikel (plaatjes, spellingcheck etc.)
..... zorgt 1 persoon zorgt voor de opmaak van het magazine ( week 1 voorkant + inhoud, week 2 een interview met sporter of een advertentie, week 3 een achterkant met strip)
....(alleen bij groepjes van 4 leerlingen:) zorgt 1 leerling voor een voedingsschema of sportschema.
De taken rouleren, zodat iedereen alle taken 1 keer doet.
CONTENT MAGAZINE:

Use all 4 Quizlet-lists to write your articles. Use at least 6 words from the lists for each article. Underscore/bold-print/colour the Quizlet-words you use.
Each article should be at least 15-20 sentences long. Also add pictures to make your magazine attractive to readers. 75% text / 25% pictures
TIP! You can use your summary to start writing your own article.
Een goed geschreven artikel heeft in iedere taal dezelfde structuur. Je docent geeft je hier instructie over. Onderstaande link kun je zelf zo vaak kijken als je wilt. Gebruik de informatie in deze Youtube clip bij het schrijven van je 8 articles.
When you have finished writing your article in Word, you can copy-paste it into the online programme 'jilster'.
In this programme you can make a professional Magazine. First, one of the groupmembers has to sign up and create an account. When he has done that, he can invite the other groupmembers to co-edit the Magazine.
LET OP! Maak je groepsgenoten MEDE-redacteur en nodig ook je docent uit, zodat deze feedback kan geven en jullie kan helpen.
Choose one of the links below. Listen and read along. Discuss with a classmate what it was about. Are there any words you didn't know? look them up in a dictionary.
Now you are going to act out the conversation yourselves. Work in threes: two of you are acting out, the third gives feedback. Use the rubric. Swap when ready, so everyone gets their turn.
