Revision Notes

  • Remember: Deliver short presentations with structure, vocabulary and voice
  • Use the routine: Opening → Middle details → Concluding statement → Practise voice/gesture
  • Before answering: point to the clue in the spoken words, written sentence, image, page layout or text purpose.
  • Self-check: change the example slightly and see whether the same reasoning still works.
Practice and reviewReady for practice

3. Common Student Misconceptions

  • No closing: End with a final statement, not just stopping.
  • Reading too fast: Practise steady pace.
  • Random gesture: Use gesture that helps meaning.

Practice Thought & Formative Assessment

Use a fresh, code-aligned example. The student should show the exact word, sound, sentence, image feature, audience clue or text evidence that supports the answer.
