Dear students,
Just a quick update. As all of you are aware, this Friday (17 April 2015) is your Oral exam. It consists of read aloud and picture conversation. Remember the following points that I have advised before:
For Read Aloud:
1) Be loud and clear but ensure that you are not shouting.
2) Ensure that you pronounce all the words clearly, especially for words ending with '-t' such as 'spent' or 'mint' and also words ending with '-ed' such as 'hoped' or 'ripped'.
3) Read fluently with expression and also variation in your tone of voice. If there's a dialogue, be the character of the dialogue.
For Picture Conversation:
1) Remember the STEP forward & DEEP impact strategy.
STEP forward is done when you are preparing and practicing on your own.
S - Scan the picture thoroughly.
T - Think of 1 like & 1 dislike about the picture.
E - Extend to yourself.
P - Possible ideas you can think of related to the picture.
DEEP impact is when you are with the teacher testing you.
D - Describe & discuss about the picture.
E - Explain about any personal experiences.
E - Elaborate further by giving more examples.
P - Possible ideas and topics that you can relate back to the picture.
I'll be giving you back the grading of the practice that we have done by tomorrow. I hope to see more improvement after the feedback that I have given to each and every one of you. Good luck and all the best for this Friday!
Best regards.
Mr Luqman
