Access Level 2 and 3: Giving a Short Talk

This week we are practising giving a short 2 minute talk. You can choose any subject you like - maybe your favourite sport, hobby or pastime. You can talk about an animal, your favourite city or maybe a story from the news ... you decide!

CLICK HERE AND WATCH THE VIDEO OF AMIR FROM IRAN TALKING ABOUT HIS COUNTRY'S NATIONAL SPORTS - WRESTLING & FOOTBALL

When planning your talk think about the stages we discussed in class.

1. Amir Introduces himself and the subject of his talk to his audience;

2. Amir's main points are about a) Football - Iran is not doing so well in Asia b) in Wrestling, however, the country is #1 or #2 in the world;

3. Amir explains why Iran is so good in Wrestling - a) they have a long history doing the sport b) it is a very spiritual activity for Iranians, he says;

4. Amir closes his talk by inviting his audience to talk about their national sports and to ask him questions.

Remember to FIND and PRINT some pictures from the internet / or find a short video on YouTube to show the class - it is good to have something to show the class as you talk.
