It’s been election week for year 5/6. We discussed what living in a democracy means and what the alternative might look like. We spoke about what makes a good leader. Children had the opportunity to write their own speech and share their ideas with the class. The speeches were very impressive with children showing off a range of orcay skills: pace, voice projection, emotive and persuasive language, and good body language.
Help at home: ask your child about writing their speech. What ideas did they have for improving the school?
