1.1.5 Introduction

In Grade 2 the learners will build new experiences in the additional language on those learnt in Grade 1
as well as those learnt in their Home Language. They will continue to need many listening and speaking
opportunities so as to develop their reading and writing skills in Grade 2.

A wide vocabulary is very important. The ICS modules for Grade 2 provide opportunities for the revision
of Grade 1 vocabulary and they gradually introduce and consolidate new vocabulary by means of poems,
rhymes, stories, riddles and jokes and games to play.

Learners are encouraged to answer questions, and to take part in discussions and conversations on familiar
topics.

The attention is drawn to the sounds of letters in the additional language and learners discover that some
letters sound the same as in their home language whereas others differ.

Although the educator will attend to correct pronunciation at this stage, learners should always be
encouraged to speak the additional language without feeling incompetent and self-conscious.

By keeping the dictionary pages at the end of each module in a file, learners can revise the vocabulary
and use these lists as a personal dictionary to which they can refer when completing or writing sentences
and stories.

Time scheduled for the modules 1 to 8

It is suggested that the average learners complete all eight modules during the year, completing ± two
modules per term.

The slower learners will proceed at their own pace while the quick learners can be given more tasks if
necessary.

All learners in Grade 2 should be exposed to all the listening, speaking and reading activities in these
eight modules to ensure that progression occurs throughout.

Learners are introduced to the usual farmyard animals, what they eat, the sounds they make and how
they are cared for by the farmer through poems to listen to and to recite, picture stories to read and activities

A memory game has been included to encourage learners to participate in speaking the new language.
Integration of themes

• A Healthy environment

Farming - animals on the farm need to be cared for. The role of the farmer is important to the economy of
the country. The interrelationship between Man and Nature must be preserved and maintained.

• A poem to listen to. . .

On the farm

Listen to the chitter chatter
on the farm out there-
the animals want their food today
Hay for me", says the tall black mare.
The cats are mewing
and the cows are lowing,
the dogs are barking,
and cocks are crowing.
The ducks auack-auack,
and the pigs grunt-grunt,
the hens and the chicks
all gather up front.
Only Kitty Cat is sleeping,
with her eye on the door,
she's already seen the farmer
bringing food galore!

1.7.4 Memorandum

Learners are encouraged to answer questions, and to take part in discussions and conversations on familiar
topics.

The attention is drawn to the sounds of letters in the additional language and learners discover that some
letters sound the same as in their home language whereas others differ.

Although the educator will attend to correct pronunciation at this stage, learners should always be
encouraged to speak the additional language without feeling incompetent and self-conscious.

Time scheduled for the modules 1 to 8

It is suggested that the average learners complete all eight modules during the year, completing ± two
modules per term.

The slower learners will proceed at their own pace while the quick learners can be given more tasks if
necessary.

All learners in Grade 2 should be exposed to all the listening, speaking and reading activities in these
eight modules to ensure that progression occurs throughout.

Reading of riddles and stories are encouraged.

A counting rhyme is included and coins are counted integrating the learning area of mathematics with
that of Literacy.

The basics of economics are introduced as learners understand the farmer produces the products to sell
in order to have money to buy necessities for his family.

Integration of themes

• Social Justices

The farmer needs people to help him work on the farm - he creates job opportunities and the workers in
turn have a responsibility towards their employer
