Suggestions to gain money for the fair.

Dear Lee, I heard that you’re feeling very upset because you have not enough money to go to the fair with Sam and Raj. I know you’ve been waiting to ride on the big wheel and to eat lots of candy floss. However, I think you should do some jobs so you can have enough money to go to the fair. In my opinion, you can get some money by being a baby sitter because I know you’re really good at taking care of children. Other than that, you can also help your neighbour to mow their yard. I hope you can rethink my idea and will have some money for the fair! I am looking forward to hear from you soon. 81

LITERATURE MODULE BY JJ SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS]

PICTURES











CONCLUSION This module shows that teachers from Jempol and Jelebu can work hand in hand in order to come out with great ideas for development of English language. Hence, with fun activities to do during literature lessons, hopefully students will find English as an enjoyable subject. Teachers’ collaboration is said to bring great results. Therefore more collaboration between teachers from Jempol and Jelebu is to be carried out from time to time in order to produce more creative lesson plans that will be used in the classrooms
