Hello,
For your final oral task I want you to make a video in which you describe the personal information and routine for a person you really like or admire. The idea is to prepare a Power Point presentation and a website (https://screencast-o-matic.com/) for creating your video. You can use a different software if you wish, but you need to post yours at YouTube and share it with the class. The following video is a brief tutorial.
Now, in relation to the video content these are the instructions.
NAME | A day in life of ... |
COMPETENCE |
Students are able to:
· Describe people’s actions and characteristics. · Express possession. · Indicate origin and nationality. |
EVIDENCE OF ACHIEVEMENT AND PREPARATION |
You will make a Power Point presentation with pictures only, but don't forget to write a title for each one of them. This presentation will be turned into a video. The slides order is as follow:
Slide 1. Cover and character's photo. Describe that person's personal information, include family ties as well. Slide 2-3. Basic daily activities. Mention the time. Slide 4-5. Describe his/her routine at work.
Once your video is done, please share the link in the class' website blog I created for this activity. Don't forget to say hello first.
Keep in mind that this task is not longer than 3 minutes.
Now, let me remind you that you are asked not read from your notes. This task is a speaking task not a reading one.
The due date for this activity is May 11, 2019 at 11:59 pm.
