It's Presentation Time!

Once again, the boys and girls are asked to present the Poem of the Week to the class. This Friday, all students are asked to present their interpretation of "The Duke of Dodge-Ball" to their classmates.  

We will do most of the memory work at school so that all that needs to be done at home is fine-tuning, prop-finding and overall character development. 

Students are encouraged to bring props or dress up as the Dodge-ball Superstar! 

The boys and girls are expected to use their feedback from their previous presentation for "There's Something I Need to Remember" and apply it to this one. I am also asking students to consider performances they admired and to think about ways they could incorporate new ideas into this presentation. Sounds a wee bit like copying doesn't it? But hopefully you know what I'm getting at.  

The kids are asked to bring this character to life, to act in a way that makes the audience believe they truly are the Duke of Dodge-ball!  

We will not have a POTW test this week so that students can focus on their presentations.
