Speeches

On Tuesday the students of room 13 were provided with the marking criteria and were able to assess Mr Chadwick's speech about teaching.

• "I believe that you (Mr Chadwick) spoke from the heart and were very confident. Great speech. You had a clear voice. You did a good and very interesting speech. You could have made it shorter, used props, been more lively and dressed more on topic.

Yesterday students had the opportunity to further enhance their speeches and create a slideshow using the school laptops.
