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 Thursday, December 1st.



Team Challenge!

Today's team challenge was to build the tallest possible tower of cards. It was a frustrating experience!

CFOO!

In Français, we have started 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 presentations.
There are fifteen different presentations, separated into three categories: Research, Opinion and Creativity.
For the first presentation, students must choose one of the five Opinion options. 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 presentation could take on various forms: a speech, a poster, a puppet play, etc. - the possibilities are endless!

The first CFOO will take place on Monday, November 21st

Lest We Forget

Students did an excellent job presenting their poem at the Remembrance Day Ceremony this morning! They were also respectful listeners during the other presentations.
After the service, we met with a student's grandparents who told us about her great-grandpa's war medals.
