Speaking UNIT 3
Here are two examples of a possible response. Underline the words which:
- introduce an opinion
- provide evidence or backing for that opinion
Try reading them out loud to make them come alive.
M O R E P R A C T I C E FOR PART 3
In Unit 2 you practised giving a talk about a job you would like to do. Following
on from this topic, the Part 3 discussion could centre on the theme of
employment.
Look at the questions below which are based on the theme of employment.
Try to think of some more questions that you could ask in order to explore the topic
of employment. (Refer to page 124 for help with forming questions.)
Write each of your questions on a separate piece of paper and put them all in a hat
with the three questions above.
Each person should draw one question and try to give a reasoned answer on the
spot to the rest of the class. Make sure your answer relates back to the topic.
As you listen to each other's answers, make notes and be prepared to ask at least
one question after each person has answered.
Remember! When you get to university you will regularly be expected to join in
discussions in your tutorial groups, so this is a good place to start.
