Poetry Recital

On Thursday all of the Room 2 children participated in our class poetry recital. For many of them it was the first time they had ever stood up and spoken in front of an audience. Everybody did a superb job. The effort that the children put in at school and at home was fantastic and this showed on the day. The children have now learned to recognise the features that make a good recital, e.g. gesture, expression and clarity. They have also learned to be critical of their own performances so that they can improve in the future. The top 3 children will be reciting their poems in the Junior Poetry Recital on Wednesday. Well done to everybody. You can see our recital in this movie. Apologies for the poor camera work in some places!
