Hello Year 6!

Firstly, thank you very much for performing “The Wizard of OZ” for my mum last week. She was really delighted and thinks you are all wonderful! She says thank you.

The play is starting to sound really good. To help you practice, I have recorded myself saying all of the lines in the script.

Here are the links to the recordings:

Wizard of Oz Act I, Wizard of Oz Act II, Wizard of Oz Act III, Wizard of Oz Act IV, Wizard of Oz Act V, Wizard of Oz Act VI, Wizard of Oz Act VII, Wizard of Oz Act VIII

Listen to the recordings and pay attention to how the words are pronounced and stressed.

For example, in English we DON’T usually stress the last word in a sentence, as you can see in this line from Act I:

‘I want to talk to YOU and your WIFE about Dorothy.’

Only the words in capitals are stressed in this sentence.

Note! I have made some mistakes in the recordings (especially Act VII). Sorry! I only had an old version of the script and couldn’t remember the correct words!

All the best,
Sonia
