Gemma and Pasha will be travelling with us this year. We will meet up with them in each unit. Look out for them and their friends!
What is Gemma doing wrong? Why is she not making sense?
That’s right !!
We stop at the end of a sentence when we speak. Sometimes while we are speaking, we even pause a while. We use our voices differently when we ask a question or exclaim at something. When we write, we use full stops, commas, question marks and exclamation marks – and this makes
what we say, easier to understand.
Let’s start with the capital letters
Briefly jot down where we would use capital letters.
Circle all the places in the following paragraph where capital letters have not been used:
Let’s quickly make notes so that we do not forget what we have discovered.
We use
capital letters for the following:
specific names of people and places, of towns and countries, of buildings, of books – in fact, anything that is a proper noun (do you still remember what you learnt about proper nouns last year?). Write down a few examples and do the same for each of the following:
names of the days of the week, months of the year and festivals
the
first word of a new sentence:
the word
“i”
Can you think of three more examples? Write them down.
STOP! CHECK! REWRITE CORRECTLY!
xuas tied mr baboon up and drank water from the dam.
sir warthog, jack jackal and leo leopard refused to guard the dam on monday and tuesday.
i read this story to thandi, susie and calvin.
peter promised to buy the book in cape town after christmas.
Now I know where to use capital letters! [LO 4.4.3; 6.2.6]
Punctuation
What are the following punctuation marks called and how are they used?
λ
A full stop is used _____ . Complete and give an example.
?
A question mark is used ____ . Example (write your own sentence):
! An _____ mark is used to show ____ . Example: (own sentence)
STOP! CHECK! REWRITE CORRECTLY!
mr tortoise said he would save the water for the animals
no
did the leopard and jackal offer to help
may i have some more water
let me go
xuas hopped onto mr tortoise’s back and sat down
Commas are used:
to separate the items in a list, e.g. ____
to separate the rest of the sentence from the person being spoken to, e.g. (Thank you, Thabo.) Write down your own example.
to stress specific words in the beginning of a sentence, e.g. (Yes, I will go home now.) Write down your own example.
to separate the two parts of a sentence when a person or thing is described or named in two ways, e.g. Gemma, the naughty puppy, chewed up my slippers. (Can you give your own example?)
STOP! CHECK! REWRITE CORRECTLY IN YOUR BOOK OR ON A SHEET OF PAPER
(The asterisks serve as clues to help you.)
*bees love roses * pansies * poppies and dahlias *
*maja * the bee * is sunning herself on a petal *
*no * leave the insect alone *
*yes * *I don’t mind spiders at all *

In economics, a perfect market refers to a theoretical construct where all participants have perfect information, goods are homogenous, there are no barriers to entry or exit, and prices are determined solely by supply and demand. It's an idealized model used for analysis,

Where is quantity of cut flower produced, I is labour input and K is fixed capital input (K-5). Determine the average product of labour (APL) and marginal product of labour (MPL)
Quantity demanded refers to the specific amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a give price and within a specific time period. Demand, on the other hand, is a broader concept that encompasses the entire relationship between price and quantity demanded

sir...I just want to ask one question... Define the term contract curve? if you are free please help me to find this answer 🙏

it is a curve that we get after connecting the pareto optimal combinations of two consumers after their mutually beneficial trade offs

thank you so much 👍 sir

In economics, the contract curve refers to the set of points in an Edgeworth box diagram where both parties involved in a trade cannot be made better off without making one of them worse off. It represents the Pareto efficient allocations of goods between two individuals or entities, where neither p
