Aim of the learning journey

A person is more than a job. Lina lives above a bakery and does not work there. The scheme of work starts with her, not with a workplace tour.

Text(s) studied

Text written for this class

My name is Lina Ortega. I am seventeen. I live with my aunt on the third floor, above a bakery. At six in the morning the stairs smell of bread. I do not work in the bakery.

On Tuesday and Thursday I play the drums in the school band. We rehearse in room 12, from 5 pm to 6.15 pm.

I am not the singer. I arrive early because the drum kit is heavy and I hate asking for help.

My aunt says the drums are too loud. She is right about the kitchen.

She is wrong about room 12: the door is closed.

On Saturday I work at the bookshop on Rue des Ecoles, from 10 am to 1 pm. I put novels back on the shelves.

I do not use the till yet. Last Saturday a child asked for a book about whales.

We did not have it. I wrote on a yellow card: The Whale's Song.

I still do not know the author.

Both things are true: the band and the yellow card. I do not have to choose which one is serious.

Day	What is true in the text
Tuesday and Thursday	drums, room 12, 5 to 6.15
Saturday	bookshop, shelves, not the till
Last Saturday	a yellow card, a missing author

Reading and questions

Three questions

Where does Lina live, and what do the stairs smell of at six in the morning?
Why does she arrive early for band, and about which room is her aunt wrong?
What did she write on the yellow card, and what does she still not know?

Start with the aunt or the yellow card, not with 'I am a student'. The bakery is only a smell on the stairs.
