Speaking assessment

As we are finished with reading The Body, watching Stand by me, and writing about the two, you are now to prepare a short talk about your favourite book or film. You have 70 minutes on Monday to prepare your talk. During that time you are to write down some key words, practise on your own, and then together with one or more friends. Remember, practise makes perfect!
On Thursday and also Monday next week I will listen to you all individually as you present the book/film to me.

The information that is to be included is:

• Title
• Author (if you are talking about a book)
• Where and when the story takes place.
• Main characters. Describe him/her/them.
• What the story is about. 
• Your own thoughts on the book/film. What makes it your favourite.
• How would you recommend the book/film to? Age, gender etc.

You are of course allowed to add other things you feel are of importance. 

Make sure to practise what you are going to say as I would prefer if you don't bring a lot of notes when presenting the book/film. If you are not fully prepared after Monday's lesson, completing it will be your homework for Thursday.

Remember, this will be my last opportunity this term to assess your speaking skills!
