Focus words Understanding 1 Find the focus words Read the text: Growing up means slowly becoming more independent. When we are young, our primary relationship is with our parents. As we grow older, our connections with others become more important. One example of this is our friends. We begin to rely on them the same way we used to rely on parents. At the same time, being a teenager is all about trusting yourself more – finding out who you are and building your self-esteem. This will help you handle peer pressure and not worry too much about the opinions of others. a) Find the focus words in the text and write them down. b) Use at least four of the focus words you find to write at least four sentences. Example: My older brother is already a teenager. Writing 2 Describe relationships Choose three people who are close to you. Describe the relationship you have with them. Try to write at least three sentences about each person. Example: My grandmother: My grandmother is my father’s mother. I spend time with her every summer. She makes the best waffles in the world and tells me interesting stories. peer pressure independent identity Hæfniviðmið • Lesið, skilið og unnið með fjölbreyttan orðaforða úr ýmsum textum. • Skrifað um skoðanir sínar, tilfinningar, reynslu og þekkingu með fjölbreyttum orðaforða.
