Reader Presentations

Hello students!

On Wednesday 8th and Thursday 9th of February, you are going to give presentations about your second semester readers.

About the presentations:

-You will have time to log-in on the computer and load your presentation.
-The presentations will be recorded for checking later, and possibly for uploading to the Dara NP website (I'll ask you first to make sure that's ok)
-You will be able to use Philip's presentation clicker. You can use this to go forwards and backwards in your presentation, as well as using the laser pointer.

-You will be presenting for between 3 and 5 minutes. If you show a video, the timer will stop and then start again when you begin speaking.
-The timer will be on an iPad that only you and the teacher can see.

Grading:

You'll be given a score out of five for the following categories:

1) Speed/Fluency: Do you speak too fast, too slowly, or at a good, steady pace? Do you take a long time to think about what you are going to say next?

2) Accuracy/Grammar: Do you make mistakes in your grammar, or do you speak English accurately?

3) Content/Knowledge: Do you include all relevant/useful information? Do you include too little or too much information?

4) Style/Prounciation: Do you speak too loudly or quietly? Do you sound bored, or enthusiastic? Is your voice clear and easy to understand?

5) Creativity/Originality: Do you have your own ideas? Is your presentation different? Do you talk about different things from everybody else?
