P5 Big Talk Homework

Title:  Planets

Pupils have been given a project to prepare and give a short 5 minute talk about a planet in our solar system.  Some ideas might include size, temperature, distance from earth or the sun and length of day.  You can use the internet or books to find out facts or pictures/drawings about your chosen topic and can decide how you would like to present the talk ie PowerPoint presentation (saved on GLOW or pendrive), poster, photographs, bringing in items from home.

Children should practise their talk at home in order to be able to fluently talk to the class, they might want to use notes on paper to help them remember their talk.

Talks should be ready to be heard for Monday 11^th May
