FLAG FLES SPOKEN LANGUAGE CONTEST
Guidelines
REGISTRATION
- Only teachers who are members of FLAG may register their students for the
contest. Those who wish to join FLAG should visit the
FLAG website for more information.
- The cost per student is $2. This must be paid in advance when registration
is sent.
- Any FLES teacher in grades K-5 may participate. Only ten students may be
registered per teacher, regardless of the number of grades (or schools) taught.
Each student may participate in only one category. There will be no exceptions.
- There is NO "native speaker" category.
CONTEST PACKET
- Once your registration form has been received, name tags for each of your
registered students will be made and will be provided for students when they
check in on Saturday.
CHECK-IN/CHECK-OUT DESK
- Only teachers report to the check-in desk. They will verify that all
students are present and will pick up the nametags for their students.
Students will be judged on a first come/first serve basis.
- The time frame for the entire contest is 9am to 1pm. Teachers and their
students will be able to leave as soon as they have finished their interviews.
- All students will compete against a set of standards and not against other
students. The performances will be assessed as “superior”,
“excellent,” or “good.” Each student will receive a
certificate. The contest results will not be reported to the teachers or their
students. All judges' decisions are final.
- Teachers may be present during their student's performances; however,
they may not speak to the students or the judges at any time. There will be
no coaching and no audiences. Parents will wait in the school cafeteria.
WAITING TIME
- In the designated waiting area, students should not be left unsupervised
by the adult chaperones.
- Refreshments will be available for sale in the cafeteria.
- After students have competed, they should go to the waiting area. After
about 10 minutes, teachers may pick up their students' certificates before
leaving the campus.
CHANGES
- We must be informed of any cancellations in advance. Should a student not
participate due to an emergency, you may substitute another student as his/her
alternate (no change in category or time). Please advise the judge in your
room of any substitutions before the performance.
- Please double-check the spelling of your students' names on your schedule.
Be sure that the judges have the correct spelling for the certificates.
