Scripture Reading- Change of date

The Eisteddfod Assembly is now Monday afternoon of Week 10 in the church.     

Scripture Reading Challenge 2019

• Your scripture reading can be anything you like, eg. a parable, a psalm, a reading from the Gospels.

• Introduction: Years 4/5: 15-20 seconds. 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 ...... ‘

• The Reading:  for Year 4/5  should be 1 – 2 minutes long, it will just be some verses of the Scripture.

• 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: Monday  1^st or Tuesday  2nd April, class Eisteddfods will be heard,

-       Eisteddfod Assembly will be on Monday 8^th April in the church, names will be put on Facebook and the classroom blog.

• 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 you reading off by heart but you should learn your introduction.

-       Make sure your words and voice are very clear, so that your audience understands.
