Year 2 - Public Speaking

-

As part of Book Week, children are focusing on spoken language and oracy skills, in particular 'public speaking.'

Following The Mighty Oak Public Speaking Program, Year 2 have started to learn how to use skills such as eye contact, gestures, voice and speaking space to effectively recite a poem in front of an audience. They also practised their reciprocity skills by providing feedback to their partner.


Cassius: You need to use expression in your voice.
Nella: You need to look at the audience.
Brian: Use your body like your hands to make actions.
Emily: Stand tall like an oak tree!

Well done, Year 6!
