THE GREAT ORAL EXAM (6TH PRIMARY)

HI KIDS!!! WE ARE ALREADY FINISHING THIS PRIMARY LEVEL AND I'M GOING TO CHALLENGE YOU WITH A GREAT ORAL EXAM CALLED "CHAN CHAN NEWS".

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO??? WHAT IS IT ABOUT???

WE HAVE TO DESIGN A NEWS TV PROGRAMME IN GROUPS OF FOUR OR FIVE. TWO PEOPLE WILL BE THE TV PRESENTERS, ONE OR TWO WILL BE THE REPORTERS AND THE OTHER ONE WILL BE THE DIFFERENT VISITORS IN ROOFTOPS.

THE TV PRESENTERS WILL INTRODUCE THE NEWS TALKING ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON IN ROOFTOPS AND FOLLOWING THE ORDER OF THE DIFFERENT UNITS AND VISITORS IN THE CITY. THEY WILL DEVELOP A DIALOGUE EXPLAINING IMPORTANT THINGS  HAPPENING IN ROOFTOPS BEFORE ASKING THE REPORTER TO AMPLIFY THE INFORMATION.

THEN, THEY WILL LET THE REPORTER INTERVIEW THE VISITORS ONE BY ONE USING THE TOPICS, VOCABULARY AND GRAMMAR USED IN EACH UNIT, THAT IS, TALKING ABOUT THE YOUTH CLUB, THE DIG, A SURPRISED PARTY...

THIS TEST IS ONE WAY TO SHOW YOUR FLUENCY, ACCURACY AND LEVEL COMMUNICATING IN ENGLISH. THINGS YOU NEED!!!

- PERFECT INTONATION AND PRONUNCIATION IS COMPULSORY. YOU HAVE TO IMAGINE YOU ARE JOURNALISTS IN A NEWS TV PROGRAMME SO TRY TO SPEAK CREATING INTEREST AND EXPECTATION IN THE AUDIENCE.  

- USE SIMPLE BUT MEANINGFUL SENTENCES. THE AUDIENCE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON. 

- USE THE GRAMMAR FORMULAS LEARNED IN EACH UNIT AS PRESENT SIMPLE IN UNIT 1, PAST SIMPLE IN UNIT 2, PAST CONTINUOUS IN UNIT 3, COMPARATIVES AND SUPERLATIVES IN UNIT 4, QUANTIFIERS FOR UNIT 5 AND FUTURE TENSE FOR UNIT 6.

- PREPARE YOUR JOB WITH YOUR GROUP. IT'S IMPORTANT TO GET THE IDEAS CLEAR AND IN WHICH ORDER YOU HAVE TO TALK.

- DRESS UP AS AUTHENTIC JOURNALISTS IN A TV PROGRAMME. FORMAL AND SMART!!!

- EACH TIME AND DEPENDING ON THE UNIT THE REPORTER IS IN A DIFFERENT PLACE WITH A DIFFERENT VISITOR. DRESS UP OR USE DIFFERENT ACCESORIZES TO HELP THE AUDIENCE UNDERSTANDING. 

- THESE ARE THE DIFFERENT TOPICS OR NEWS YOU HAVE TO DEVELOP:

* MARIE: AT THE YOUTH CLUB

* WALID: AT THE DIG 

* SOPHIA: A ROBBERY IN ROOFTOPS

* MARCO: AT A THEATRE PLAY

* MAY: AT A FARMER'S MARKET
