Warm-up:

Pass around a box filled with questions connected to the topic of the lesson.  Play music, when the music stops, the child with the box must pick out a question, read it and answer.  Suggested questions: Do you love your family? Do you have a best friend? What is money? What is health? What is happiness? How often do you help your mother? What’s your favorite holiday? etc.

Activity 1

Point out that all the words in the box are prepositions of place and direction and ask students to check their meaning in a dictionary

Use two books and a pen to demonstrate the meaning of the prepositions, e.g. put the pen behind one of the books and ask Where is the pen? Then place it between the two books and ask again then hold it above one of the books.

In pairs, students look at the photo and complete the description with five of the prepositions in the box.

 ANSWERS:

1.       Next to 2. Behind 3. Under 4. Between  5. In front of 

The people in the photo are celebrating Nauryz.

2. After students have verbalized as many "important things" as they can think of, explain that many of these "things" can be called "values." Hand out and read the beginning sentences of "What Is a Value?"
3. From the list of values on the chalkboard and on their handout, ask the students to consider which four are the most important to them. Let them explain which four they have chosen and why.

Activity 2: Discussion

Divide students into pairs, let them tell each other about their best friend at school, and out of school. Is it the same person? Then let them discuss these sayings. Do they agree with them?

·         Love me, love my friends

·         Opposites attract

·         A friend in need is a friend indeed

·         East or West home is best

Ask if there are any similar sayings in Kazakh or Russian.

Activity 1: Vocabulary

Draw on board two large flowers with 6 large petals. Draw in one a happy face in centre and the other a sad face in centre.

Discuss with learners what are good actions we value and what are not good actions. Give an example of each. Make sure learners know the difference between behaviour we value and behaviour that isn’t good. Use ‘not good’ rather than ‘bad’.

Learners brainstorm good things a friend did for them. Encourage learners to use past simple verbs e.g.helped, made, gave, visited, watched, met, said

Record actions we value on happy flower petals and not good actions on sad flower petals.

If learners are unsure, suggest some of the following and they write them into the correct flower petals:

good = helps a friend; takes turns when playing a game; is a good loser; helps family at home; keeps bedroom tidy; doesn’t take people’s things without permission; puts rubbish in a bin

not good = not speaking to a friend; fights when playing; gets angry when loses; doesn’t help at home; takes people’s things; throws rubbish on floor

They record six good and six not good ideas in the petals on worksheet.

Activity 2: Writing

Write a "Good person Recipe" telling someone else how to be a good person. Include the "ingredients" of good values and the steps for being a good person.

Cards from the heart

It is the Project work to revise the topic “What we value” in a more entertaining way.

Getting started

Activity 1: Let’s talk about cards!

Before the class, prepare cards for different occasions or ask students to bring in cards from home. Students discuss cards. What are they? When do we give them? How do we feel when we give and receive them? Use the cards students have brought in and any you have brought in to discuss the different occasions when cards are given: Thank You, Birthdays, Anniversary, Religious Events, New Year, Invitations, Valentine’s Day, Missing You, Friendship, Bon Voyage, Graduation. Students identify what the different cards are used for and when they are given. Which cards have students given and received? How did this make them or the other person feel? Ask students to brainstorm why you might send someone a Thank You card. Discuss which values are reflected in sending such a card, for example, showing you appreciate someone’s kindness, being thoughtful.

Activity 2: Let’s make cards!

Show students step by step how to make them. Guidelines can be obtained from the following website: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Handmade-Greeting-Cards

Some basic steps to make a card are:

Step 1: Fold the piece of paper or cardboard in half to make the inside of the card.

Step 2: Plan a design (draw or stick a picture)

Step 3: Inside the card write what you value in the person you give it.

NB: Safe work practices need to be agreed upon such as not running, being responsible and passing scissors correctly and not pointing scissors at anyone, using glue carefully, sharing resources and working cooperatively together. Invite students to use tools such as pencils and crayons, scissors, rulers, glue and sticky tape to join and shape the materials provided. Encourage students to be as creative as possible using the resources.

Activity 4: Reflection

Students give their card to each other. Discuss the process of card making, giving and receiving and how it fits in with values. Ask questions such as:

• How does your card show you care for someone?

• How does your card show your true feelings?

• Why did you choose the colours, materials and words on your card?

• What do you like about other students’ cards? Why?

• How are you going to give this card to your special person?

•After you have given this card to your special person, think about what happened. How did they react? What did they say to you? How did you feel?

•What have you learned about values?
