Speech Arts is just around the corner! It is a time for students to get "comfortable" reading and presenting in front of their class.This year I am asking all students to present a poem and read a bible passage.
Poetry:
The poem does not need to be very long. I would like each student to learn and memorize a poem that he/she presents to the class for 30 seconds - 2 minutes. You know your child best so help him/her choose a poem that they can learn and memorize. Poems need to be selected by Jan.20th. Please send me a copy via email or in your child's homework folder. Start learning the poems immediately and practice with your child saying the poem title and author before reciting the poem.
Bible Reading:
There are three passages that students will need to practice. Your child does not need to memorize these - they should be practiced until your child can read them comfortably. Practicing one reading a night is good (and counts as part of their nightly reading). The passages were sent home today.
Speech Arts poems and Bible Readings will be presented, in class, on February 15 & 16.
