Memorandum

ACTIVITY 1

Before tackling this ACTIVITY, let them sign the Commitment Certificate with honesty and sincerity. Keep these certificates in the learners’ portfolio.

1 Only one grade e.g. Grade 10’s only

2 Have a few good questions so that your findings are reliable.

3 They should ask 30 learners from different classes.

4 Make sure that the handwriting and spelling is correct in the record. The record can also be in a graph form.

5 Decide what it will be that will make your product better than the competitor’s.

  1. Let them use adjectives / present participles here e.g. industrious; innovative imaginative; clever; thorough; interested in people.

ACTIVITY 2

1 Where in the classroom? / On the school grounds? / Nearest to the entrance? / In the far corner? / Near the light? . . .Also: On a table? On straw? On the floor? . . .

2 What wrapping will be used? / What colours? . . .

3 Will they stack boxes? / Use a table-cloth / Red material? / Have different heights? / Put the small ones in front and the larger at the back? Will there be signs up? / Will the price be clear? / . . .

4 What will be done to invite buyers, at least, to take a look and to buy?

5 Pupils must understand that they should not over-price nor under-price: That consumers are not stupid. (Explain how some sellers try to do this to tourists and that this puts off tourists, who are not stupid and who know the value of things!)

  1. Explain about friendliness, politeness, interest being shown and about how to talk to buyers.

ACTIVITY 3

1 Discuss the use of bill-boards; posters; signage. Give examples

2 Perhaps have a surprise parcel; a competition?

3 Make it look as if the buyer cannot do without this product.

  1. The school newspaper; poster; intercom; notice-boards?

ACTIVITY 4

1 Help the learners with this. Let them also look in the shops and see what ideas they gain there.

  1. They need to look at a calendar that gives the public holidays or use the special days at school or in their town – there might be a craft market they could go to?

ACTIVITY 5

A good time to talk to them about over-pricing, about rudeness to customers or a casual attitude which drives customers away. Perhaps they can draw up a list of qualities that a salesperson needs to have. This will let them think about their career choice and about writing a CV. Once they have the list, they could put the qualities in alphabetical order and then explain WHY the qualities are necessary. Let THEM draw up an evaluation list.

ACTIVITY 6

First let them draw up a list of words that they could use. They can do this at home as a home assignment or as a group ACTIVITY, using a dictionary. Let them put down some

headings: Words that describe a look (appearance); a feeling; a taste and smell. Then the words can be shared and vocabulary improved!

Explain too about onomatopoeia and figures of speech that they could use. And remember to place their efforts on the classroom wall. Pupils learn from pupils sometimes more than from an educator!

However, first go over some excellent sections from any individual effort with the class.

  • Help them with the letter format.

ACTIVITY 7

Go through the planning of the essay with them so that they understand exactly what they have to do. And then explain that they do need to EDIT their work – you can help them with the rough work.
