Angleščina, 9. r./2. sk. (Črešnar)

Did you think we were done with Modal Verbs? Oh, no. No, no, no. Haha. That's funny. So funny, you get a pic and two GIFs IN A ROW.

Alright, enough tomfoolery. Let's go. Remember, RED means copy.

Last lesson, we had a look at a lot of different modal verbs. So the first job is simple:
*********************

*******************
JOB #1: Revise everything we did previously. 

Click HERE for the previous lesson or check your notebook. You DON'T HAVE TO (see? Modal verbs everywhere) read everything again, just go through it quickly and remember what you learned.

Then, when you've done all that, here's

JOB #2: have a look at this remember box from page 145 (CLICK) and READ the explanations below.

The translations? Good enough. The explanations on the right? Not bad. The examples...?
MEH

First, which ones are good?

• I HAVE TO BE/HAVE GOT TO BE home by ten.

We did this one already - rules by someone else = usually have to.

FRIEND: "Want to go play some baskeball?"
YOU: "No, sorry, I HAVE TO study.

HAVE TO has another use: RECOMMENDING SOMETHING. If you want to tell someone about a great movie, song, game, book, play, team, whatever, you can use this phrase: YOU HAVE TO CHECK IT OUT.

YOU: "Have you read Dune?"
FRIEND: "No."
YOU: "Oh, man, you HAVE TO CHECK IT OUT. It's GREAT/AWESOME/WEIRD/INSANE.

• You NEEDN'T (NEED NOT)/DON'T NEED TO (DON'T HAVE TO) wait for me.
• You DON'T HAVE TO do the shopping.
  

Great. No comment. "Ni ti treba čakati". A more "po domače" version of the second one: "Ne rabiš it v trgovino". That's how it's done. More:

You NEEDN'T WORRY. I'll call him later.
You DON'T NEED TO spend a lot of money to buy a good computer.

• You MUSTN'T BE afraid of making mistakes.

This one is really nice. MUSTN'T and NEEDN'T are often used to calm people down when they're upset or worried or stressed.

You MUSTN'T worry so much. It'll be OK.
You NEEDN'T WORRY. I'll call him later.

It can also be used to warn people not to do something stupid again. If they listen or not... that's another story ;)

You MUSTN'T yell so much at parties. You'll destroy your voice. (I said this to a friend on tour. He didn't listen. He barely made it through three shows, poor guy.)

It can, of course, be used just as a simple opposite of MUST. MUST NOT. Makes sense, doesn't it?

All passengers MUST BE seated during takeoff and landing (morajo biti posedeni). Passengers MUSTN'T FORGET to fasten their seat-belts (ne smejo pozabiti).

Now, the "meh" ones.

• Teachers SHOULD make lessons interesting.
  
  
  

Oh yeah, book? Why don't you say that to my face? YOU WANT SOME?! How about this!

Student's books SHOULD GIVE better examples.

I'm kidding. A little. Luckily, we did SHOULD, SHOULDN'T and MUST last lesson. No need to go over them again and you can look to those examples. Here are some more, better examples:

Students MUST HAND IN their essay by 6PM tomorrow. (RULE: If you don't, you fail)

Students SHOULD USE Arial, Calibri or Times New Roman. (GOOD IDEA: If you don't, you don't fail, but I will look at you in an angry way)
Students SHOULDN'T COPY from Google Translate. (same thing: If you do, I won't give you a 1, but I will think you're lazy.)

**************

Now that you're a modal verb Kung-Fu master (kimono not included), let's do some writing. INCOMING SECOND CONDITIONAL: If this WERE real class, we WOULD TALK in pairs or in groups or in whatever-s. But it's not. Writing, it is.

JOB #3: Write down 10 school rules in English. Write them in your notebook.

Think about which rules we really, REALLY yell at you if you don't follow, and which we think are good/bad ideas.

Elizabeth: "WAIT! You have to take me to shore! According to the Code of..."
Barbossa: "FIRST! Your return to shore was not part of our negotiations nor our agreements so I 'must' do nothing. And secondly, you must be a pirate for the Pirate's Code to apply, and you're not. And THIRDLY... the Code is more what you call guidelines than actual rules. Welcome aboard the Black Pearl, Miss Turner."

For example:

Students MUST WEAR slippers in school. (we nag you about this. So it's MUST)
OR
Students MUSTN'T WEAR shoes in school
Students SHOULD listen and pay attention during class.

Students SHOULDN'T BRING expensive things to school. (It's your stuff. We won't take it. But it's still a bad idea.)

JOB #4: Compare school to home. Write at least 5 more sentences. What do you HAVE TO DO and what are some things you NEEDN'T/DON'T NEED/DON'T HAVE TO DO?

For example:

I HAVE TO WEAR slippers in school but I DON'T HAVE TO WEAR anything at home.

I HAVE TO BE QUIET when walking down the hall in school but I DON'T NEED to at home.

There you go. And to finish up, one more thing:

JOB #5: Play Kahoot!

You know the drill. Click on THIS LINK. Click "CLASSIC". Wait for the PIN. Go to kahoot.it on your phone. Type in the PIN and nickname. The game should (=bi morala) start automatically. Have fun!

Tomorrow... you guessed it... we have EVEN MORE modals. That's the last one, I promise.
