Dear students, Today is your end-of-trimester final assignment. Please talk for a minimum of three minutes and a maximum of four minutes. (Ideally, everyone should present today, so this is why there is a rather strict time limit). There will be a computer already set up, so your should bring your presentation slides on a thumbstick for quick and easy access. You will be assessed for fluency (not reading, and speed of delivery), vocabulary (appropriacy and precision), grammar (range and accuracy), and pronunciation (clarity and naturalness). Your scores will be an estimate of your speaking score for an IELTS test. Please download the IELTS bandscale criterion scales for your reference. Good luck! Chris Elvin
