Livability

Year 7

English / Geography 

Students conduct an independent investigation in Geography to enhance the liveability of either Chisholm or their own suburb. They utilise persuasive language techniques to pitch their idea in a 3 – 4-minute speech. Students cover the following components: 

• Persuasive language and public speaking techniques and structures. 
• An identified problem, issue or challenge to liveability in the local area. 

• Ways to enhance liveability in the local area and potential solution(s). 
• Persuasive arguments as to why the potential solution(s)should be implemented to enhance liveability.
