Oral Presentations: Talking about music we like.

Oral Presentations are to give students practice public speaking i.e. to prepare and deliver a speech. This year to give students added incentive to work harder on their speeches I "youtubed" them. They were given the option to opt out if they were unhappy with their performance and I promised to delete their post. These are the speeches my students gave.

Grand Finale
The students work together on their own initiative to produce their version of Godfather. It is an amazing production esp since they learnt to do it all on their own.
