Let’s read the Poem

Who I Want To Be
(by:Jessa M. Ricaborda)

Who do I want to be in the future?

There are a lot of choices the world can offer.
I can be a teacher who gives students their lectures,
Or be a person that plays golf like a golfer.

I can be a banker who helps people manage their money,

Or a baker who bakes bread that taste like honey.
Be a doctor that helps the sick and needy,
Or be a dancer that dances in harmony.

To be a movie director would be a great!

Many exciting movies, I would create.
I can be a decorator who makes every room pretty,
Or be a potter who makes potteries, so crafty.

Truly, there are a lot of choices the world can offer.

Every duty is special, every job differs.
But if you ask me who I want to be in the future,
I just want to be a genuinely happy creature!

God Almighty is our (create)____creator____. He made man as the

(lead)________of all His creatures.

If you are a ( follow ) __________ of God, you will obey His commands.

Man is the ( keep ) ________ of all things God has made.

REMEMBER
Key Points

 We can form personal nouns from verbs by adding suffixes

-er and –or ( meaning the one who or the person who does)

Example: interpret + er = interpreter act + or = actor

Teach + er = teacher Collect + or = collector

 We normally use suffixes to change a word to a different part of

speech:

teach (verb ) + er = teacher ( noun )

collect ( verb ) + or = collector ( noun )
