Scripture
Reading Challenge 2014
This week, you need to work on preparing your eisteddfod.
This week, you need to work on preparing your eisteddfod.
- Your scripture reading can be anything you like, eg. a parable, a psalm, a reading from the Gospels. You may choose your own or I will have some simple texts for people to choose from.
- choose a prayer that you know, to say. It may be the Hail Mary, the Childrens' Suscipe or a simple one that is known. I have some to choose from.
- Introductory speech – Years 3/4: 15-20 seconds. This is a time to use the main ideas or theme of the scripture reading to make up a small speech explaining what the reading means to them, without retelling the reading – ie. ‘What the story of the Last Supper tells/demonstrates/means to me is ...… ‘
- Timetable – Monday 7th April Rooms 3 & 4 class Eisteddfods will be heard. One boy and one girl will be chosen to give their eisteddfods on the Thursday.
- Format for scripture reading on the day: Whole school Eisteddfods, Thursday 10th April in the church – students will start in the middle of the church in front of the altar using a microphone with their introductory speech, then they move to the lectern and say “This is a reading from eg. Matthew Chapter3, Verses 1 -14 ...” then start the reading. At the end, if it is a gospel reading only say, “The Gospel of the Lord".
- Years 1 & 2 students will say their prayer with the microphone in front of the altar.
- For students to remember
-
When
reading from the lectern you do not have to look up at your audience all the
time – don’t always look at one particular group.
-
Use
good expression when you read.
-
Do
not read too fast.
-
Pause
correctly.
-
You
do not have to learn you reading off by heart but you must learn your
introduction.
-
Make
sure your words and voice are very clear, so that your audience understands.
