Above: Pictures from our in-role drama where we met Mother Goose and Detective Guy Smiley to solve the mystery of Who Pushed Humpty Dumpty??!
In First Grade we have just finished working on an interview project that connects to Waltham's Public Speaking Curriculum. Each student chose an adult in the school that they would like to learn more about. They came up with 3 or more questions that they would like to ask that person and then conducted their interview. After the interview, each student wrote a speech sharing one interesting thing that they learned about the person they interviewed. We used these speeches to practice our public speaking skills. Everyone did a great job with Volume, Posture and Beginning Eye Contact! Be sure to ask a first grader all about these important skills.
