Tuesday

We are in it now!

Please record an 8-minute commentary based on your self-chosen extract from Orwell or Wilson. Use the notes from your organizer. Please do not stop the recording unless you are taking it from the top and going all the way — no editing, please! Name the file Lastname.Firstname

Your partner should assess your work on one side of your rubric. Clearly label the rubric: 

Commentary by SPEAKER'S NAME

Assessment by ASSESSOR'S NAME

Length: 7:55

Put the exact length of the commentary on the rubric (it will also show in the recording). The speaker himself should assess his own work on the other side of the rubric and clearly label it in exactly the same way (SPEAKER AND ASSESSOR WILL BE THE SAME THIS TIME, BUT LABEL IT!)

You should perform and assess your own commentary: you should listen and assess your partner's commentary. 

Send that recording to me by email or by going to 

Dropittome.com/jkoon and placing the file in there. The password is turnin.

If you have an iPhone 5, you can Airdrop it to me.

Also turn in your extract, the completed two-sided rubric, and your notes when you return to class.

Here is a pdf with both the HL and the SL oral commentary rubrics. They are also linked in the links list to the right.
