Speech assessment & Learning for Friday 7 August 2020

Here is the speech assessment.  Read, think and send me your questions.

Jasper Jones 
- ka mau te wehi to those of you who made the brainstorm on the novel earlier in the week., and for sharing it with everyone!
- keep reading, keep thinking
- next note taking focus is on the Minders Hall scene:

The miners' hall scene: language features, distress & ignorance

"From inside the hall, I heard a single scream, a crockery crash, the gasp of a crowd, then a sustained barrage of sobbing and screeching.  It was loud and unintelligible.  Heads turned."

Who, what, where, when, why?

What does Charlie learn about Corrigan from this event?
