Adding: Specific details were added to enrich the text. For instance, the novel’s title, Dreams Come True, and the exact number of copies sold (over 200,000) provide concrete information that makes the story more engaging and authentic.

Modifying: Sentence structures were modified to enhance clarity and readability. The original sentence "It's an incredible story" was expanded to highlight the remarkable aspects of Akiko’s story, specifically her use of a mobile phone for writing.

Simplifying: Complex ideas were simplified to ensure they are accessible to learners. The rephrased sentences avoid convoluted phrases and jargon, making the text easier to understand.

Reorganizing: The content was reorganized to improve the logical flow. Details about Akiko’s writing process and the initial criticism of mobile phone novels were structured in a way that follows a coherent narrative progression.

Rephrasing: Certain terms and phrases were rephrased for better comprehension. For example, "thought they were a bad influence" was rephrased to provide a clearer explanation of the initial criticism.

Engagement and Impact: The story starts with an engaging hook about Akiko's unexpected success and highlights the incredible nature of her accomplishment, making it emotionally engaging for readers.

WHY THE MATERIAL IS SUITABLE TO THE STUDENTS?

The material is suitable to form 1 students due to the fact that they are most likely low in proficiency. As my material first introduces the professions in the form of posters, I believe that the pictures in the posters will attract students’ interest and they are introduced to a vocabulary related to professions. Once they have learned the professions, they will want to learn how to pronounce those words, so the video will definitely help them master the pronunciation. Then, they can use the website provided to learn more about pronunciation. Lastly, the worksheet is made to test students on their knowledge about the professions. Although the vocabulary in the worksheet is not mentioned neither in the poster nor the video, students can use the website to search for any words and learn how to pronounce them. Also, the website can provide the definition of any words they have searched. Therefore, I believe that the materials I have created are suitable to help form 1 students in the aspect of learning English.

For the vocabulary part, the material is adapted from the Pulse2 Textbook. In the textbook, the vocabulary part is focused on people who changed the world-a description of famous figures and their professions. As the textbook introduced vocabulary related to professions, so in my presentation material, I used the same professions just like the Pulse2 Textbook but I applied a simplifying strategy as I introduced the vocabulary in the form of posters. The posters include a caption of “What do you want to be when you grow up?” and there are graphics that illustrate the professions. For example, a picture of a ballerina-a dancer. Next, a video is created parallel with the expanding strategy. The video teaches ways to pronounce the words according to the professions introduced in the posters. As for the digital material, I have provided a link to a website that can help students in boosting their pronunciation. Lastly, for the practice materials, I created a worksheet that contains a description about famous figures and students must write what is their profession. In the Pulse2 Textbook, the descriptions of famous figures are arranged based on timeline. However, I applied the deletion strategy in which the timeline is removed.

THE QUESTIONS:

1. "What's the title?"

2. "Who's the author?"

3. "What kind of book is it?"

4. "When did you read it?"

5. "Why did you like it?"

Adapting the materials from "Pulse 2 Textbook. The activity started with introduced to the students regarding "asking about an experience" by using a video entitled “talking about an experience”. The video helped students to understand the flow of asking and answering questions. Next for the activity, the questions that were being provided in the pulse textbook were too little of information, so we removed some of the questions from the textbook and simplified the questions by adding new simpler and straightforward questions that are easier for students to comprehend. For example, the questions in the textbook were specifically focusing on "an experience on a trip" and we added a few more questions to test students’ knowledge based on the questions on the “speaking cards”. Lastly, for the additional activity, we used the same question that was provided in the pulse textbook and created an audio explaining and simplified the instructions regarding the activity so that students can understand what they have to do for this activity.

The grammar materials consist of presentation material, practice material and digital material. There are two presentation materials. For the first one, I use the addition strategy as I add notes about the tenses the students are going to learn. For the second or main presentation material, I used the tenses provided in the Pulse2 Textbook (simple past, were/weren’t, could/couldn’t) and applied the modifying strategy as I re-write the examples using my words. Next, in the practice material which is the worksheet, I utilised the text about The Hunger Games. In the textbook, the text is about the author talking about The Hunger Games book he/she received from his/her brother. In my version of the text, the author talks about watching The Hunger Games movie. Therefore, I have used the modifying strategy again as well as deletion strategy as I cut the text from 123 words into only 86 words. Lastly, I have provided a digital material which is a quiz platform that is known as Blooket. The addition strategy is applied here because I make use of the tenses provided in the Pulse2 Textbook to create an online quiz.

In my opinion, these materials suit Form 1 students because they have a good flow. As the material starts with notes that explain about the tenses and followed with a presentation material that gives examples about the tenses so the students can understand more about the tenses. Next, the practice material comes through as students are required to answer a worksheet. The worksheet is not complex and only has 86 words, so it is suitable with form 1 students’ level of proficiencies. Lastly, the digital material which is an online quiz matches today’s 21st century learning which requires teachers to use technologies in teaching. So, I am sure that these materials could cater the grammar part of a lesson.

Using an audio about the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for Form 1 students based on Pulse 2 Textbook and impliment a mind map activity as a questions platform is a good idea because it fits well with how they learn. I made changes to the questions, like using simpler words and straightforward, so it's easier for them to understand. The mind map helps students organize what they hear and answer questions about it. This way, they can understand better and remember more. The activity also helps them think more carefully about what they hear and how it fits together. It's like a step-by-step guide that helps them learn while having fun. With this activity, students not only learn about the Edinburgh Fringe Festival but also get better at listening, thinking, and organizing their thoughts. It's a great way for Form 1 students to learn and have fun at the same time.

The story about visiting the Sherlock Holmes Museum in London is excellent for Form 1 ESL students to develop their writing skills. It’s simple and engaging, describing a real-life visit to a well-known museum, making it relatable. The language is straightforward and easy to understand, crucial for ESL learners. The story includes descriptive details, helping students learn how to add vivid elements to their essays. Its clear structure, with a beginning, middle, and end, serves as a good model for essay organization. Including personal opinions, like enjoying the museum shop and noting the wait time, shows students how to add their perspectives, adding depth to their writing. Additionally, the story introduces British culture and literature through Sherlock Holmes, enriching students’ cultural knowledge. Overall, it provides a clear example of descriptive writing, encourages personal reflection, and demonstrates proper essay structure, making it an excellent tool for improving writing skills.

In adapting the activity of listening to an audio about the Edinburgh Fringe Festival from "Pulse 2 Fact or Fiction" for Form 1 students, several adjustments are made to suit their level of comprehension and engagement. Firstly, I added an additional element like a picture related to the festival. This way to enhance student’s understanding. Modifications to the original material are essential that involves simplifying sentences and adjusting the complexity of questions in the mind map. For example, I give a direct question where students can just write the answer after listening to the audio. By carefully considering these adaptations, I believe that this activity can effectively improve Form 1 students’ listening skill while achieving the educational objectives of listening comprehension and critical thinking.

# data[].attributes.body
The material used to conduct the activity is most likely using a simple English grammar and suitable for students with low to intermediate level. In our materials, students need to watch a short video about “talking about an experience”. In the short video, there’s a conversation between two people, one of them asking about an experience and the other one answers it with simple answers. This is because we want students to understand the flow of how to ask and answer a question. In my second activity, I’ve provided a “speaking card” with simple questions and points on what to mention while asking and answering the question. This is to help students practice on how to ask a question and how to answer it. By using a simple and straightforward question this can help students to understand the question and answer it better with more confidence. In the card it also mentions what to include while answering the questions. We believe that, by providing that, students will have more confidence to answer since they will know what they need to mention in their answers. Lastly, on the additional activity, students are required to work in pairs and discuss. The questions that are being provided are the questions from the material, “Pulse 2 Fact or Fiction”. All questions are already easy to understand, and no changes were made since the questions from the material are already straightforward questions. For this activity, students must record a video of their “asking and answering” session and they can use their creativity to make the video much more interesting. All the activities are suitable for Form 1 students' proficiency and yet they can still have fun while gaining new knowledge.
