Friday 24th April
If we were in school, today would be an assessment opportunity and we would record your oral discussion of the book. I completely understand that this will be difficult but if you have a willing adult, sibling or want to take on the role of both people in your discussion- great. Recap success criteria for a good discussion. Have a practise and perform using planning sheet from yesterday. If you are confident to record, please do I would love to hear you, if not don't worry, just have a think about how the discussion could develop. If you manage your discussion, I've attached the Evaluation Sheets for you to think about how successful you've been. Well done for whatever you achieve.
Success Criteria -
Bronze: ask at least 4 questions
