Teaching guide

What children will practise

Read short everyday texts such as room signs, reminder notes, notices, calendars, menus, order slips and invitations, use the information, and write short texts of their own: a lost-property notice, a postcard, an invitation and a shop sign.

What's in the worksheet

20 slides (follow the page number in the bottom-right corner), with Min and Bas touring Reader Town - Pages 1-4, signs around us: point to the school, library, post office and restaurant signs; read a note (tomorrow to the library: notebook, pencil, library card and water bottle) and circle those from ten items; trace the route to the library; fix three room signs that are on the wrong doors - Pages 5-10, reading to use information: a notice for singing practice on Friday the 12th at 09.00 at the flagpole field, then mark it on an August calendar; read a menu (fried rice 25 baht, noodles 30 baht) and write an order; choose tray ก, ข or ค to match fried rice and orange juice; find the pink bag with a bear and Min's name tag; write a lost-property notice (colour, description, last seen) - Pages 11-17, writing to communicate: a postcard to a friend, completing an unfinished meeting note, signs for a reading corner, asking politely to borrow a book, an invitation (event, day, time, place, from), answering questions from a story-reading invitation, and writing the same message as a short sign and as a message to a friend - Pages 18-20: my shop sign, a shop role-play and a class exhibition - There are no answer slides

How to use it in class

Use in a Year 1-2 unit on reading for everyday life over three lessons of about 40 minutes (pages 1-10 reading to use information, 11-17 writing to communicate, 18-20 shop and exhibition). - Before pages 4 and 9 walk the class past real signs in school, or put real items on the desk, and read each description bit by bit (colour, picture, name tag) - On pages 15-16 have children write their own invitation and swap with a partner, who must answer what, when and where; if they cannot, the invitation is missing information

Common sticking points

- Choosing an item that matches only part of the description, such as a pink bag without Min's name tag, or the pink rabbit water bottle (page 9) - Choosing a tray with fried rice but no orange juice, or orange juice with spaghetti (page 8, trays ข and ค) - Circling tempting items that are not on the note, such as crayons, snacks or the football (page 2) - Leaving the time or place out of an invitation or meeting note
