Kia Ora Room 6 Whānau. 

We have been busy at school planning and preparing for our speech exams. More information about the speech exam timelines will come out in the school newsletter soon so keep an eye for Room 6s exam date. 

Please encourage your girls to be practicing at home the following things;
- Their pepeha
- Their individual poem
- Completing their talk through the use of google slides. The slides acts as a prompt to support their talk. Their talks are much like giving a keynote or seminar. There should be supporting images and key headings, but very little writing. They talk their way through their slide as they give their instructions. 

I would like their slides completed by the end of the term so the girls can practice them over the holidays.

I have attached for your convenience, a copy of their speech exam criteria and an example of what 1 slide should look like to support their talk. 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

 

Kindest regards, 

Kate McIlwrick
