Presentation transcript:

Do now: Rewrite the following statement in language you would use at a fancy restaurant: Example: “Man, this shrimp nasty!” might become: “I don’t prefer the shrimp.” “I can have some chicken?”

Objectives: SWBAT explain the usefulness of code- switching SWBAT explain the purpose of speaking in formal (or “standard”) English at school

Picnic vs. Fancy Restaurant *Turn and talk: Why did we have your brainstorm these lists? How does it connect to formal and informal language?

Informal vs. Formal Language

Why do it matter? Why does it matter? “Language of Opportunity” Job interviews College Daily work at your job Formal writing PRACTICE is key to fluency.

What it might look/sound like at Dibert: A teacher says something like “Time and place” or “Let me hear that in a college-ready sentence.” A teacher asks you to say an answer again A teacher repeats your answer back to you in a questioning voice, “They don’t listen to they mama?” (They want you to say it in standard English.) A teacher circles an answer on your work and asks you to rewrite it in formal/standard English

What is the goal of insisting scholars speak and write in formal English? It is NOT to embarrass you. It is NOT because the way we may speak with our families and friends is wrong. It IS ONLY because the more “codes” you know, the more open the world is to you, the more successful you can be.

Exit Ticket: Answer the following questions in complete sentences: 1.What are two ways a teacher might remind you to use formal language? 2.Why do we do our best to speak in Standard English at school and work?
