Day 1 - term 3

IMPROMPTU speeches...Room 7 had fun doing some of these today. 
(More information to come..but at the end of the term each child will be presenting a speech).

We sat in a concentric circle and had a turn speaking for 30 seconds to our buddy - we moved around the circle - and had a variety of speech topics.

Afterwards the children wrote down 10 impromptu speech ideas - I gave them a range of what the idea had to be based on: eg: Funny, sad, to do with the class, interesting, silly, favourite etc..

I have chosen 1 speech topic from each child and have written up a list (more to come..) the children can use these to do impromptu speeches. We will start with 30 seconds and as we get better we will move onto 1 minute. As their end of term speech will be 3 minutes long.

Here is the list (you should read some of the ideas in their book - eek!).
