3 Noun Clause Short Story: Video and Worksheet


Video: HERE
Worksheet: docs, pub

Notes: For a while, I've been using Strega Nona as a model text for Noun Clauses.  But the more I've been thinking, the more I've been unsure that it's actually modelling the grammar point I want.  So, I searched Youtube to see if I could find a better model text.  For the moment, this is the best I could come up with.  It's from the editad1 Youtube channel that I mentioned before.  
When I play this in class, I first use the gist questions "What does this person want?" and "Why did she fight with her parents?"
I then play the video from 0:21, but without showing my students the video (only playing the audio for them.)  After the students have processed the video for gist understanding, I give them the worksheet, and as a noticing task they have to listen and write in the missing words.  And then I show them the structure.

--I wish I could grow up faster.

--Why?

--Well,I could do ____________________. I could be ____________________. No one would ask me ____________________.

--Did you have a fight with your parents?

--No! I mean sort of. They didn't like ____________________.

--Of course they didn't like it! And I guess you didn't even call them saying ____________________.

--Why?

--Well,I could do whatever I wanted. I could be wherever I wanted. No one would ask me why I did something.

--Did you have a fight with your parents?

--No! I mean sort of. They didn't like that I came home past midnight.

--Of course they didn't like it! And I guess you didn't even call them saying that you'll be that late.

* Noun Clause Short Story

Recently I was searching for a Youtube video that presented noun clauses in some sort of context, and I found this channel: https://www.youtube.com/@editad1

It looks like there are a lot of other useful videos on this channel that put grammar points into conversations.  Because they are marked as for kids, Youtube won't let me put them into a playlist, but I'll link to some of them down below.
