• 00:00 - 00:02

  today we're going to finish our work on the Highway

• 00:03 - 00:03

  Man poem.

• 00:04 - 00:06

  And today, what I thought we would do is create

• 00:07 - 00:07

  a glossary.

• 00:08 - 00:11

  Now that we have read the poem, hopefully a couple

• 00:11 - 00:13

  of times would have a little think about the characters.

• 00:14 - 00:16

  I wonder whether we've got a bit of a better

• 00:16 - 00:17

  understanding of some of the language.

• 00:19 - 00:22

  So I've made a list of some words that I

• 00:22 - 00:23

  thought we could create a glossary.

• 00:25 - 00:26

  Yeah, I am.

• 00:26 - 00:27

  So here we go.

• 00:28 - 00:38

  Got Torrent galleon, claret repair, casement, Tony, musket refrain and

• 00:38 - 00:42

  spurred. So what I'd like you to do is to

• 00:42 - 00:43

  create a glossary.

• 00:44 - 00:45

  Remember that if it's a glossary, it's going to have

• 00:46 - 00:47

  to be in alphabetical order.

• 00:48 - 00:49

  And then I'd like you to do a bit of

• 00:49 - 00:53

  research and find out what each of these words mean.

• 00:54 - 00:56

  Maybe you can use the poem to work out for

• 00:56 - 00:57

  yourself what they mean.

• 00:58 - 01:00

  But for some words, you might need to look in

• 01:00 - 01:00

  the dictionary.

• 01:01 - 01:03

  Or you might do a bit of research on the

• 01:03 - 01:05

  Internet. So have a look at those words.

• 01:06 - 01:09

  Mhm. And then what you think.

• 01:10 - 01:11

  What else could we add to our glossary?

• 01:12 - 01:13

  Because I've only given you nine words.

• 01:14 - 01:16

  You might think of some other words in the poem

• 01:17 - 01:18

  and you might wonder what they mean.

• 01:19 - 01:20

  So why don't you add them to your glossary?

• 01:21 - 01:22

  So have a good that.
