The four friends and the captain looked at the pile of
rubbish they had made at the back of the beach. The
beach, the bay, the rocks, everywhere was now clear of
rubbish.
Suggest several ways to keep our beaches clean. Talk about a ‘gotong-royong’ activity in school that the children
have taken part. Explain the values that the people have, based on the picture
on page 13. In groups, discuss the impact of a dirty beach and write down
your answers on a piece of paper. Pupils draw scenes before the place was cleaned up and after
it was cleaned up. In groups of 3, pupils come with a recycled item using
discarded objects.
Post Reading
Pupils compile pictures of clean and tidy places from newspapers and magazines and create a collage.
Using the story as a guide, pupils come up with a 5 minute sketch with the same theme.
Demonstrate correct way of throwing rubbish. e.g. throwing the rubbish, tying the bag to throw it.
Students cut out words which show the values of cleanliness from newspapers and paste it in their folio.
Pupils give a different ending to the story. Pupils come up with their own poem or song based on some key
words given by the teacher.
