Dear Parents<br />
We have been participating in sharing time since the beginning of the year.<br />
The pupils are now ready for what we call Teach and Tell. This differs from<br />
simple sharing in that the child is responsible for teaching his/her classmates<br />
a simple activity or skill. Ideas include, but are not limited to, the following:<br />
• an anagram (scrambled word)<br />
• a ‘how to’<br />
• a craft such as origami<br />
• explanation of how something works<br />
• a logic puzzle<br />
• a maths fact<br />
• a mind game<br />
• a science experiment<br />
• the rules of a sport or game<br />
• a science fact<br />
• words in a foreign language<br />
The best place to begin when choosing a topic for Teach and Tell is with your<br />
child’s particular interests and hobbies. Once the decision has been made,<br />
please help your child to prepare by watching him/her rehearse, offering<br />
praise and suggesting improvements.<br />
Thank you for taking the time to help your child prepare for Teach and Tell.<br />
The more rehearsal he/she has, the better the presentation is likely to be.<br />
Sincerely<br />
Teacher<br />
