ESB Graded Examinations in Speech Teacher Guidance: Foundation
Ask students to work towards developing eye contact ‐ from looking up, to sharing the reading with the whole group. This will help to involve the listening group in the story. To know how to make effecƟve use of pause is one of the most important lessons for the speaker. Silences are as necessary in giving an intelligent interpretaƟon as are sounds. Encourage students to use pause to separate phrases, renew breath, and for dramaƟc effect. Pauses can be used to indicate intense feelings to help in building up a climax. Please see the Suggested Choices secƟon for a list of recommended texts. For further guidance about how to read aloud to an audience, please watch this video:
