We're working on something super-fun!

If all goes as planned, we hope to have our very first "School News Report: Christmas Edition" recorded and ready to go for Thursday!

The boys and girls have their scripts, they know their parts and they know what they have to do to really make their character come alive! 

We're focusing on reading with lots of appropriate expression, making our reading sound like natural speech and we're even working on our comedic timing!

The news is all make-believe, but the lessons learned through this project are not! My hope is that after this exercise, the boys and girls will have further developed their overall reading fluency and perhaps helped them to develop some important oral presentation skills! 

I'm asking the kids to really work at practicing their lines as much as they can. Memorization is not required since this will be a good ol' fashioned radio show!

I can't wait to share the final product with you all!
