Today is the first day of the Easter holidays. We were lucky and had lovely weather! The sun shined brightly and the sky was blue.
Everyone we met said to each other, “It’s a beautiful day, isn’t it?”
In the morning assembly, four students made a short speech about what they had for dinner.
Today was the final day that we had lessons in the Pump Room. We promised that we would speak English as much as possible without using Japanese.
Now we have almost finished the script for the final presentations.
So, we need to improve it. We learned that when we deliver a speech we should keep in mind several points such as facial expressions, stress, voice, gestures and eye contact.
Teachers checked every script very carefully to make sure their presentations are grammatically correct and engaging.
Showa students practised their speech by themselves outside of the classroom and even in the beautiful grounds of the Pitville Pump Room.
If the noble men of the nineteenth century had been here, they would have been surprised to see our girls working so hard on their speeches.
See you next week!
