Eisteddfod - Scripture Reading Challenge 2018

• Your scripture reading can be anything you like from the bible, eg. a parable, a psalm, a reading from the Gospels, an Old Testament story.

• Introductory speech –Y7/8: 1 minute (times are approximate). This is a time to use the main ideas or theme of your scripture reading to make up a small speech explaining what the reading means to you, without retelling the reading – ie. ‘What the story of the Last Supper tells/demonstrates/means to me is ......

• Planning and marking - Remember as you prepare to look at the marking schedule so that you do exactly what is expected of you so that you score as highly as you are capable of! Give it everything and do your best!
