I've listed a few key points to help our boys in their picture description.
1)At the beginning, remember to state the venue shown in the picture. Example: This picture depicts a scene at the ...
2)Give a general overview of the picture shown. Focus on using descriptive phrases and adjectives.
3) Highlight the important section in the picture. In order to identify the important section, look out for a good act or an inconsiderate behaviour that needs to be addressed in the picture.
4) Describe the feelings felt by the characters in picture. Focus on their facial expressions. Add in your opinion on the possible reason(s) for the feeling evoked.
5) Conclude with a learning point that's evident in the picture. Example: In conclusion, I believe everyone plays a pivotal role in saving our Earth. It is our duty to conserve the resources on Earth, so that future generations can enjoy the treasures Mother Nature has to offer.
Homework:

As for reading aloud, please ensure that the reading is clear, fluent and there's accurate intonation and pronunciation.
CA2 oral examination will commence on next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
