News Telling - Term 1 Year 2 - Mrs Currie's Page

[Pages:3]Dear Parents,

Listed below are the News Telling topics for Term 1. Please discuss each weekly topic with your child well in advance so that they will be prepared to speak on their allocated news telling day. A `News Telling Framework Planning Sheet' has been provided in this document. Please encourage your child to (1) plan and (2) practise their news telling topic each night, rather than the night before. The students speaking and listening skills will be assessed several times during the term. Some of the items on this planner may not be applicable to some of the news topics because of the nature of the topic. Also as part of this document is the Speaking and Listening assessment criteria that will be used.

Thank you for taking an interest in your child's education.

Mrs. Katya Currie & Mrs Rachel Paplinski
