Speaking Test / 8 - 12 March

Your goal is to be able to tell others something about who you are and what happened to you in correct English. Next to that you should be able to answer spontaneous questions.

How to prepare yourself:
- Read your Roald Dahl book
- Practise telling a bit about your main character (name, age, family, etc.)
- Study the character and the story, know who ‘YOU’ are and what has happened to you throughout the book
- Practise asking questions (for when you are in the audience)

Speaking Assessment - Next week

To know what you do well and what you can improve, you are going to do an assessment.

This is something that you can compare to the real test, only not for a mark but for feedback (what went well, what can be improved?) and feed forward (what do you need to do to improve certain skills?).

What grade do you expect for your speaking test?
