See the video flipbook here.
 
This editable resource is designed to guide students through NCEA Achievement Standard 3.5 Create and deliver a fluent and coherent oral text which develops, sustains, and structures ideas. Students take on the role of author or director of a text they've studied and pretend it has not been produced yet. They must pitch the idea to agents from a large publishing house (eg Penguin) or film production company (eg Netflix or Warner Brothers). Their aim is to convince these agents of the text's worth. Students are provided with access to planning documents to help them think critically about their text, and develop their ideas with regard to:
purpose
audience

characters

language
An additional video showing these extra planning documents is available here.
