January 2023 - High School Methodology : Speaking

Chatting, conversation, even grunting, are normal and everyday for our students, however they likely require guidance in speaking or more intentional discourse. Although these sessions aimed at High School teachers, Upper Pirmary / Lower Secondary (G5 - 8) teachers will also find them useful.
