TEACHING
ORGANISER
Based on the new 2017 KSSM English Textbook
Note to the teachers using this organiser:

This TO is based solely on the prescribed KSSM Form

1 English textbook. Edit the dates for each theme.
Please edit the teachers name accordingly. It is not
recommended to print and share a single organiser
for all teachers because different classes are taught
by different teachers (unless class-sharing is a
common practice). Please edit and use your own, not
your colleagues.
List down all form 1 classes youre teaching. Jotting
down expected/ perceived proficiency level in bracket
will help a lot when youre assigning bands according
to the performance standards later on.
The term Learning & Facilitating is used in place of
Teaching & Learning to better reflect 21st Century
Learning practices (PdPc Pembelajaran dan
Pemudahcaraan).
The suggested activities for Listening & Speaking,
Reading, and Writing are segregated into band-
approriate columns to facilitate differentiated learning
and to make it easier for teachers to assign students
into bands.
Note that there are NO performance standards for
Grammar, Action-oriented tasks and Literature in
Action.
The Literature components used for LiA are based on
the new textbook. Feel free to include activities
suitable for poems/ short stories/ graphic novels/
short plays from previously prescribed literature
component readings.
Due to socioeconomic and cultural differences, the
One Size Fits All principle does not apply to all
teaching organisers. The most ideal organisers are
those designed with a specific school with specific
clients (read: students) in mind.
Good luck with the new syllabus and have fun!
