Radio Show

You are going to record a radio show where you talk about the relationship issues that you have worked with previously. The radio show that you are going to produce have to be between 5-6 min long, (music not included).

You will work in groups of four. I will decide the groups.
In the show you should act like:
one or two radio hosts
one or two relationship experts
one or two callers who need help in the show

Write a script for for your radio show. Try to make everyone in the group talk equally much.
Talk about the questions in the Relationship column. You don’t just have to ask the question and give the answer, you can discuss the question in more detail, ask additional questions etc.

In five minutes you should be able to answer at least two questions, but no more than four.

Try to include:
- a signature melody
- a presentation of your show
- music makes your radio show varied and fun to listen to, but if you play music you still have to have 5 min where you talk.

Course of action

1. Decide what roles you are (host, expert, listener)
2. Decide what questions from the Relationship Column you want to discuss
3. Write the script
4. Read through the script out loud to see if it is long enough to last 5 min
5. Record your radio show in Garage band
