Scripture Reading Challenge 2017
- Your scripture reading can be anything
you like, eg. a parable, a psalm, a reading from the Gospels.
- Introduction. 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 you, in your own words. For example ‘What the
story of the Last Supper means to me is ...... ‘
- The Reading: The actual scripture, parable, psalm etc.
- Format for scripture reading on the
day: Students will
start with their introduction, then
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” otherwise
they say “The Word of the Lord”.
- Timetable: On Monday 10th or Tuesday
11th April, class Eisteddfods will be heard. Eisteddfod
assembly will be on Thursday 13th April in the church. Names
will be in the school newsletter.
- For students to remember:
- When reading from the Bible you do not have
to look up at your audience all the time
- Use good expression when you read.
- Do not read too fast.
- Pause correctly.
- You do not have to learn your reading off
by heart but you should learn your introduction.
- Make sure your words and voice are very
clear, so that your audience understands.
Room 4 have been reading parables and
looking up scripture in class, and they will be supported in the preparation of
their eisteddfods in class over the next few weeks. However, extra support can
be offered at home to practise and build the children’s confidence with their
choice of scripture and putting their introduction onto cards.
*Year 4-5 students should speak for
approximately 2 minutes in total.
Have a great week. Markelle Ward J
