Making Sticker Signs

Sinta wants her family house to look neat and clean every day. She then
has an idea. She thinks that it is a good idea to put a label or a sticker
sign on every part of her house. Those sticker signs will remind her
family about what to do to keep the house clean. She asks Galang and
Ara to help her out.
They decided to write eight signs for the sticker. For example,
Sinta made ‘Please do not leave dirty dishes in the sink’ sticker sign.
Galang made ‘Please lush the toilet after using’ sticker sign. Ara made
‘Please take off your shoes’ sticker sign. Galang drew pictures for the
stickers. Finally, they inished all the sticker signs. They put them
anywhere in the house, such as on the toilet door or on the bedroom
wall.

Did You Know?

“No Shoes in the House”
Culture In most Asian countries, people remove their
shoes as a sign of respect and for cleanliness. On the
other hand, people in Britain, the United States, or
in Mexico do wear shoes inside the house. If we ask a
British person to take off their shoes at our front door,
it may be a bit strange and a bit rude for him or her. In
countries especially with cold temperatures, it is a good
idea for people to wear slippers or house shoes indoors.

Tips to Separate Rubbish

There are some tips on how to separate rubbish at home. The most simple
way to separate your rubbish is by categorizing them into two types.
First, you can collect organic rubbish. Examples of organic rubbish are
food scrap, leaves, plants and soil. They can go into the composter. They
are good to use as fertilizer. Second, you should collect non-organic
rubbish. The materials that belong in this category are paper, plastic,
cardboard, metal and fabric. Before we throw them into the recycle bin,
we should clean them. Then, they can be recycled into new products.
Separating rubbish is very useful to keep our environment clean.Read
the text again and have a look at the rubbish collection. Can you separate
them based on the categories?

Section 4 – Language Focus
a. Imperative sentences
Imperative sentence is a sentence that expresses instruction,
warning, command, request, or invitation.
There are two main categories: positive and negative imperative
sentences.

In positive imperative, we use the base verb.

Example:
“Collect the organic rubbish!”
It means we want someone to collect the rubbish.

The negative imperative sentences tell someone not to do

something.
Example: “
Do not forget to wash your hands!”
or
“Don’t forget to wash your hands!”

It means we want someone to not forget to wash their hands.

In this sentence, we want someone to not forget to wash their
hands.

expressions.

Tips to Separate Recycling Items

There are many types of items that we can recycle, for example, paper,
glass, and styrofoam. Before we put them into the recycle bin, we can
think about some tips. Check the tips here.

1. Don’t crumple paper

Papers should be put in the recycling bin neatly. If we crumple pa-
pers, it is diicult to process them. If the paper is dirty or oily, we
can cut them in pieces and put them in the composter.

Chapter 3 - Home Sweet Home 143

2. Wash and separate bottles
Plastic and glass bottles should be separated in the recycle bin. Glass
bottles can be reused before we throw them in the recycle bin. If we
want to throw them away, we can wash them irst. Clean bottles will
be easy to recycle.

3. Clean styrofoam packaging

When we buy food, sometimes they are packed with styrofoam. Be-
fore we put them in the recycle bin, we should clean it from the food
scraps. We can collect styrofoam in a big group before we throw
them away.
