Sigma Publications Workbook 'AS 1.6 Construct and Deliver an Oral Text' is a write-on student workbook covering the English skills needed to gain Achieved, Merit, or Excellence in this NCEA Level 1 Achievement Standard. The work in this book covers only Achievement Standard 1.6 (AS90857).

This new workbook contains a large number of write-on student tasks designed to enable students to practise the necessary skills which will bring a deeper understanding to this area of the New Zealand English curriculum. Students will also find a large number detailed instruction boxes, glossaries and English resources that will help them develop the ideas, vocabulary and processes needed to gain a high level pass in the internal assessment for this Standard.

Towards the end of the workbook there is a model of a Speech which candidates can use to compare with their own efforts in preparation for the internal assessment. A wide selection of oral presentations is covered and space is given over to the development of presentation skills. A full set of task answers is included, which act as a guide to structuring quality work. An abbreviated version of Achievement Standard 1.6 is included in the resource.
