Among the activities I like the program called “Meet & Speak” the most. “Meet & Speak” happens once a fortnight (hai tuần lễ) from 3 pm to 5 pm on a Saturday at the common hall of Tran Mai Ninh Secondary School. The aim of the activity is for children in the locality to meet one another and share their learning experiences. In each meeting we work in a whole group or in small groups talking about our interests, hobbies, dreams and about our study . We also have topics for discussion. At the meetings we sometimes have chances to talk with writers, poets or soldiers who come to talk about how they have become such and such people in the society. I find the activity interesting and useful. Here I can make friends with many other children. Particularly, I have chances to express myself in front of other people. Speaking in public helps me overcome shyness and build up confidence. 1. What is the aim of “Meet&Speak”? 2. How often do children meet? 3. What do children usually talk about? 4. Who also come to the meeting? And what do they talk about? 5. What makes the author of the text like the activity?
