Grade 8 — Senior Phase

Taalstrukture & -konvensies

The Grade 8 Afrikaans FAL backbone. Any taalwerk topic prepared on prior request — book at least 48 hours in advance so Mr Sajini can build you a focused worksheet pack.

STOMPI-sinsbou

Sentence construction the right way: Onderwerp · Werkwoord · Tyd · Voorwerp · Manier · Plek · Infinitief. Drilled until learners stop guessing word order.

Tye, direkte/indirekte rede & aktief/passief

Teenwoordige, verlede en toekomende tyd. Switching between direct and indirect speech, and converting active sentences to passive — clear rules, exam examples.

Woordsoorte

Selfstandige & byvoeglike naamwoorde, werkwoorde, bywoorde, voornaamwoorde, voorsetsels, voegwoorde, lidwoorde — the parts of speech learners must label fluently.

Meervoude, verkleinwoorde & trappe van vergelyking

Plurals, diminutives and comparative forms. Plus sinonieme, antonieme, idiome and the literal-vs-figurative distinction Grade 8 examiners love to test.

Now for Matric

From Grade 8 fundamentals to NSC distinctions.

Same teacher. Higher stakes. Sharper preparation for Paper 1, Paper 2 and Paper 3.

Next up — Grade 12.

The Grade 12 syllabus is exam-driven from day one. Below is exactly what Mr Sajini teaches matriculants — the prescribed drama, the prescribed poems, and every section of Paper 1 and Paper 3.

Grade 12 — Matric (NSC)

Letterkunde — Fiela se Kind (Drama)

The full prescribed drama by Dalene Matthee, scene by scene. Themes (identity, belonging, motherhood), karakterontleding, kontekstuele vrae and essay structure for Paper 2.

Poësie

The prescribed poems for the current matric year — analysed line by line. Tema, toon, beeldspraak and structure, plus how to break down an unseen (ongesien) poem under exam pressure.

Paper 3 — Skryfwerk

The 100-mark writing exam: opstel, langer transaksionele teks (formal/friendly letter, dialogue, speech) and korter transaksionele teks (e-mail, advert, instructions, diary). Planning, drafting, and editing — every week.

Paper 1 — Taal in konteks

Begripstoets, opsomming (7 punte in 70 woorde) and the language-in-context section: advertensies, spotprente and visuele tekste. The mark-grabbing techniques examiners reward.

Taalwerk (op aanvraag)

Any FET-level grammar topic — woordsoorte, tye, sinsbou, direkte/indirekte rede, aktief/passief, leestekens, idiome, spreekwoorde. Booked at least 48 hours in advance.
