Use a review that will be encouraging for the team Optional: Art materials Flipchart paper Photos ILRs Projector 30 mins Activity 2: Mind map planning Ask learners to create a mind map of things they would like to include in their speech.

40 mins Activity 4: Proof-reading Ask learner to proof read the following:  Sense; does it flow, make sense? Sound interesting  Is the presentation balanced in relation to how much of it is about the past, present and future? This can be done by highlighting the speech in different colours to easily see the tense balance.  Spelling; check by reading slowly, reading out loud, reading backwards to just focus on spelling rather than sentence coherency, someone else read it.  Sentence coherency; Read out loud, read to someone else, someone else read it, read at a later date with a fresh pair of eyes. Pairs Individuals Vary support according to learner/group needs Use worksheets to cement learning Pens and paper Different coloured pens Worksheets:

  • Checking writing work for mistakes
