All About Me Presentation

Image
Dear Parents, Next week, your child will be asked to present a 2 - 3 minute speech all about themselves and what makes them special, as part of our Speaking and Listening program. Our class presentations will start on the 3rd of March.   We will be assessing them on their volume, speed, voice, body language, eye contact and their content. We have sent home an "All About Me" sheet for the students to complete before their presentation.  Please see the below timetable for your child’s scheduled speech. Thank you for your ongoing support.
