Talking Boxes

The children were asked to bring in up to five items of interest to them from home to talk about to the rest of the class (Talking Box).  The purpose of the activity is to build up confidence in speaking to an audience and learning to listen to others.  The other children are invited to ask questions at the end of each talk, developing the children’s questioning skills.  The children were delighted to show their classmates their Talking Boxes and we really appreciate the efforts the parents went to, to help their children create their boxes.  Thank you.
