Spending Money

Mari belajar bagaimana berbicara tentang uang, belanja, dan membuat keputusan finansial yang cerdas!

1. Ice Breaking: “Kebiasaan Belanjaku”

Mari kita mulai dengan aktivitas seru untuk mengenal kebiasaan belanja kita!

Jenis Permainan Ice Breaking dan Cara Memainkannya:

  • Action Song: Lagu dengan gerakan yang melibatkan tema uang atau belanja.

    Cara Bermain: Pilih lagu anak-anak yang ceria tentang uang, menabung, atau belanja (misalnya, lagu yang bisa diubah liriknya seperti “Old MacDonald Had a Farm” menjadi “Old Mr. Money Had a Shop”). Guru memimpin gerakan sederhana yang sesuai dengan lirik, dan siswa menirukan. Ini membantu menghafal kosakata dan membuat suasana lebih hidup.

    Contoh Ide Lagu: Anda bisa mencari “Money Song for Kids” atau “Shopping Song for Children” di YouTube. Cari di YouTube

  • Guessing Game: Permainan tebak-tebakan terkait harga barang atau kebiasaan belanja.

    Cara Bermain: Guru menyiapkan beberapa gambar barang (misalnya, buku, pensil, tas, sepatu) dengan harga yang berbeda (atau bisa juga membuat kartu harga). Guru menunjukkan gambar, dan siswa menebak harganya dalam bahasa Inggris (“How much is this book?”). Siswa yang menebak paling dekat atau benar mendapatkan poin. Variasi lain: Guru mendeskripsikan kebiasaan belanja seseorang, dan siswa menebak siapa orang itu (misalnya, “This person always buys snacks at the school canteen. Who is it?”).

  • Brain Gym: Aktivitas singkat untuk melatih konsentrasi dan fokus sebelum memulai pelajaran.

    Cara Bermain: Guru memberikan instruksi sederhana yang melibatkan gerakan tubuh dan konsentrasi. Contoh: “Tap your head and rub your tummy,” atau “Cross your arms and touch your nose with your right hand, and your ear with your left hand.” Lakukan beberapa gerakan ini dengan cepat untuk membangunkan otak siswa.

  • “Two Truths and One Lie” (Dua Kebenaran dan Satu Kebohongan): Seperti yang dijelaskan di bawah ini.

    Cara Bermain: Setiap siswa menuliskan tiga pernyataan tentang kebiasaan belanja mereka (dua benar, satu bohong). Secara bergiliran, siswa membacakan pernyataan mereka, dan teman sekelas menebak mana yang bohong. Ini mendorong siswa untuk berpikir kreatif dan berbicara tentang diri mereka.

Contoh Aktivitas: “Dua Kebenaran dan Satu Kebohongan”

Setiap siswa akan menuliskan tiga pernyataan tentang kebiasaan belanja mereka:

  • Dua pernyataan adalah kebenaran.
  • Satu pernyataan adalah kebohongan.

Contoh:

  • I always save half of my allowance.
  • I once bought a very expensive toy.
  • I never buy snacks at school.

Bacakan pernyataan Anda kepada teman sekelas, dan biarkan mereka menebak mana yang bohong!

Skenario Tambahan untuk Latihan Speaking:

Skenario 1: Discussing Future Purchases

Work in pairs. Discuss what you want to buy in the future and how you plan to save money for it. Use conditional sentences (If… then…) and vocabulary related to money and shops.

Example Questions to guide your discussion:

  • What is something expensive you dream of buying?
  • If you get extra allowance, what will you do with it?
  • Where will you buy this item?
  • How long do you think it will take to save enough money?

Skenario 2: Debating Spending Choices

Work in small groups (3-4 students). Your teacher will give you two options for spending a certain amount of money (e.g., “Buy a new video game” vs. “Save for a school trip”). Debate which option is better and explain your reasons. Use phrases for expressing opinions and agreeing/disagreeing.

Useful phrases:

  • “I think buying the game is better because…”
  • “I disagree. Saving for the trip is more important because…”
  • “In my opinion…”
  • “That’s a good point, but…”

Skenario 3: Describing a Shopping Experience

Imagine you just went shopping. Tell your partner or group about your experience. What did you buy? Where did you go? How much money did you spend? Did you get any discounts? Use past tense verbs (e.g., bought, went, spent) and relevant vocabulary.

Example Story Starters:

  • “Yesterday, I went to the department store. I bought a new jacket…”
  • “Last weekend, my family and I visited the supermarket. We spent a lot of money on groceries…”

5. Writing: Menulis tentang Rencana Belanja

Mari berlatih menulis tentang bagaimana kita mengelola uang dan membuat rencana belanja.

Tugas Menulis: “Rencana Belanja Mingguan Saya”

Write a short paragraph (around 50-70 words) about how you plan to spend your weekly allowance. Include what you will buy, how much you will save, and why.

Example:

“This week, my allowance is 50,000 rupiah. I plan to spend 20,000 rupiah on snacks and drinks at school because I get hungry during breaks. I will save 25,000 rupiah for a new novel I want to buy next month. If I save consistently, I will have enough money soon. The remaining 5,000 rupiah I will keep for emergencies.”

Latihan Menulis: Daftar Belanja

Create a shopping list for a visit to the supermarket. Write 5-7 items you want to buy and why you want to buy them.

Example Format:

  • Milk – because I need it for breakfast.

Look for discounts or sales. Third, try to save some money from your allowance every week. Even a small amount can grow over time. If you save regularly, you will have money for bigger things later.
