    -Your grade will go only one step higher if you have improved your work.
    -If you submitted your work LATE, the maximum grade you can get is 'At.' The grade will not move up even if your resubmission is a better attempt.

    Success Criteria: I can….

    -construct texts (speech) that demonstrate an understanding of purpose (public speaking)  and audience through deliberate choice of content, language, and text form and can seek  feedback to make changes to texts to improve clarity, meaning, and effect

    -use a wide range of oral & written language features and an increasing range of vocabulary to communicate precise meaning & effect, to sustain interest and to achieve a sense of coherence when constructing texts

    -convey and sustain a personal voice where appropriate by being reflective about the production of my own texts: monitor and self-evaluate progress, articulate learning with confidence.
