Third Oral Task: Around the clock with...

Hello,

 For your final oral task I want you to make a video in which you describe the personal information and routine of a friend of yours, a family member or a person you like. The idea is to prepare a Power Point presentation and use a website (https://screencast-o-matic.com/)  for creating your video. You can use a different software of you wish, but you need to post yours at YouTube and share it with the class by posting it in the class' blog. The following video is a brief tutorial.

Now, in relation to the content of the video, these are the instructions.

NAME Around the clock with...
 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: your character's picture. Describe people's personal information  briefly.

Slide 2-3. Basic daily activities. Mention the time.

Slide 4-5. Describe his/her  routines at work. 

 

Please keep in mind that you must appear on the video as a speaker. Choose the option you prefer while creating the video at Screencast-o-matic.

 

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 to talk, not to read since it is an oral activity.

 

The due date for this activity is March 28 at 23:59.
