Presenting a news item

Task goal

- träna på att uttrycka sig varierat, tydligt och strukturerat (så att de som lyssnar kan få en korrekt bild av vad nyhetsartikeln går ut på)
- träna på att förbereda ett tal
- träna på att välja texter och redogöra för ett innehåll

Oral task for next week

• Pick a news item that you find interesting. The news item should come from an online newspaper from an English-speaking country, and the news should be about that country. Use the Internet! 
• A document called "News item, week 43" has been shared with you. The document should be brought to class for your presentation. You can only add 15 keywords.
• Be prepared to present your news item in class to a small group. 
• Your presentation should include:
• a background so that people can understand the context of the article
• a summary of what the news article reports
•  what you learnt about the country from the news item.
• Practise at home and/or with another classmate!

This is a small task, but it will still be graded. This is the checklist I will use for grading. 

Help!

- This is a link where you can see which countries have English as an official language. 
- The easiest way to find a newspaper is to google "country name newspaper" and Google will come up with suggestions for you.
