Speaking Practice-D1/C3/C4
Final Speaking Test
Guidelines Spring 2017
Chiun Kim (June)
Speaking Practice Midterm
Examination will test the student’s ability to express their thoughts and ideas
in spoken English language. The speaking
exam will cover Units
3-4 of Summit 2 textbook. Students will also be tested on the grading
criteria of their choice including rhythm & intonation, the ability to
support the answer with relevant examples and facts, fluency, and the ability
to ask follow-up questions.
Your
group can choose any topic of choice to discuss as a group or you can choose to
discuss the results of the mini research that you conducted for your blog
writing. If you’re choosing a new topic,
choose a topic that is debatable and currently in the news or something that is
of interest to your group. Despite the group discussion, students will be
graded individually.
Students
will be graded on the following criteria: 5 points each
·
Rhythm,
Intonation & Stress—Usage of
correct rhythm, stress of words, and intonation to aid in understanding of the
speech.
·
Follow-up
Questions—Ability to focus on others to ask appropriate
follow-up questions
relevant to the topic being discussed.
·
Fluency-- Spoken smoothly and with ease; flowing speech that doesn’t hinder understanding from too
many pauses.
·
Support/detail/reason-- Answers are supported with sufficient reasons and details
to support the answer.
In addition, let’s have a small talk at the beginning of your exam so that I can learn
more about you. This will also measure
your ability to have a natural flow of conversation which is required in
speaking. This is worth 2 points, totaling 22
points for your final speaking exam.
Please make sure
you exchange necessary contact information with everyone in your group and show
up to the final exam together as a group. It is not satisfactory for you to
come alone and not know where your group members are as I can’t conduct the
examination without your group. Being late or not showing up to your scheduled
examination will result in your failing the class. Lastly, please come at least 10 minutes prior
to your scheduled exam time and wait in the hallway quietly. Once you see the
prior group leaving, just come in the classroom.
Remember to
smile :)
Good luck!
