Oral Practice 30 July 2007

Dear 6B,

Dyon and Yiwen have posted a picture and a conversation topic for discussion. You are to key in the script as you would say if you encounter the picture and conversation topic in exam conditions. Hence, do not give general comments like "this picture is good...". Use the picture and topic as a chance to hone your oral skills.

Dear 6B,

It's encouraging to see so much constructive comments and they definitely show me that you have been paying attention to what we have been practising these few weeks. Also, you have done well by contributing posts that are professional and responsible. A blog is different from an MSN chat or your personal webpage, as a blog requires maturity and a responsible online etiquette. I'm glad most of you have exhibited that, with the exception of a few who have used contractions and slang.

Do have an early rest tonight and leave the stress at the door when it's your turn to go in. Smile, that's the best defence against anxiety!

See you tomorrow and all the best. Just a last reminder - be humble, not overconfident.

Cheers,
miss soon
