Speechtastic!

It's time for another Speechtastic!

This time, students are preparing an Informative Speech. They have chosen a topic (a person, a place, an event, a product...) and are planning a 2-5 minute speech to inform the audience about this topic. They should be sure to have an introduction, a middle (with all the important information explained with clear details) and a conclusion.

Speechtastic Presentations are Monday, December 11th.

CFOO!

In Français, it's time for another CFOO (Le Club Fabuleux des Orateurs et Oratrices)! 
This is a public speaking "club" that will help students improve their oral French skills through short speeches.
For this presentation, students must choose one of the five Creativity options: a magic trick, a commercial, an art masterpiece, telling jokes / riddles or showing off creative uses for an everyday object. They will then prepare their short oral presentation, fulfilling all of the criteria (listed on the page they have in their binder).
Students should also keep in mind eye contact, volume and expression during their presentation.


The CFOO Presentations will take place on Wednesday, November 22nd.
