4. Adding a variety of Punctuation Presenter: Hello, welcome to ‘The Surgery’ on BBC Radio One. Thanks a lot to Tom Deakin but it’s now one minute past nine which means we hand the show over to you. If you want to call us and get on air and share your problem with us, get it off your chest, then you can do: now is the time to call 03700100100...03700100100 – or you can text us on 81199. It doesn’t feel like a radio show tonight; in fact, you shouldn’t even think of it like that. Think of it as like a bit of a hangout where you can call some friends, get some big problems off your chest – where you can face tomorrow’s school, work or college with a clear mind.

5. Objectives: • ALL: will use some sentence structures with variety, usually spelling common words correctly apart from some errors with some variety of punctuation accurate generally for sentence separation (GRADE D ) • MOST: can use some variety in sentence structures with secure spelling of common words and some variety of punctuation within and between sentences (GRADE C ) • SOME: could use a range of sentence structures with correct spelling of more complex vocabulary and a range of punctuation throughout to shape meaning (GRADE B )

6. Lulu’s Problem? (PAIRED TASK) • We are going to listen to a live phone-in from the last Sunday Surgery • The resident guest expert, Matt, is going to give three comments to help Lulu with her problem. • The three comments are all at DIFFERENT GCSE GRADES. • Work in pairs to decide which is what grade and explain why.

7. What grade are these? Why? Lots of people probably go through this issue. The main thing is that you ask your friend whats going on. Its going to be really hard for you because she is your best friend. You dont want to lose her as a friend. It seems like you were good friends before. The most important thing is to find out why she is acting like that. Could it be something you have done? So many people go through this: a friend turning against you. It can be horrible because, you know, other friends are believing what that person is saying and not you. There does have to be a reason for this. Only she can tell you what that is; if she’s not prepared to tell you, you could drive yourself crazy trying to figure it out! This problem is not as uncommon as you think. If you can’t think of a reason why she is acting like this, try to speak to her about it. Without realising, you could have upset her. The main thing is to get the problem sorted out by talking: worrying about it will not help you. It’s not going to help you at school, worrying about all this, is it?

12.
