Week+3+Term+3+2013


 * Homework Week 3 Term 3**

I was really pleased with the 1 minute speeches that you wrote and gave on Friday. There were some great speech techniques evident and we were able to identify some areas where improvement could be made.

This week I would like you to write and deliver a 3 minute speech. During our class writing sessions we will be learning more speech writing and oral language skills which we can apply when writing and giving our speeches. **(Due Friday) If anyone is able to do their on Thursday, that would be great.**

Please click on the link to see the specific criteria that you will be marked on.

For a 3 minute speech you have a leeway either side of 30 seconds, however, try to get as close to the 3 minute mark as possible. The closer you get, the better your score.

I would like you to link your speech to these guidelines. If you would like to do something different than these please ask me and I will consider your idea. Click link to get guidelines.


 * Maths:** I have some more maths worksheets for you to complete. All of the skills on the sheets link to our classroom maths programme. By learning and or practicing these skills, you will improve on your pre-test score.
