  • Retelling stories and events.
  • Asking for clarification.
  • Displaying appropriate turn-taking behavior.
I can make myself understood by speaking
  • In one-to-one conferences, group meetings and individual presentations.

  • Using good eye contact, volume, intonation and posture.
  • Making brief presentations that describe and event with details and insight into the importance of that event.
