While you work towards finishing the rough copy of your speeches, and begin writing the good copy, take a look at this website. On it you will find sample speeches from students your age, this is a great tool to use to inspire you and to use for comparison. As we have discussed in class make sure as you write your speech that ;
1. Your hook is engaging, spontaneous and different from anything you've heard before
2. Your body paragraphs flow nicely from one to the next,
3. You speech sounds natural and authentic, do not write a speech that consists of just information. Find ways to break it up, make it sound like a real conversation between you and your audience members.
4. Edit/ peer edit, ask a person in your household to read over and listen to you say your speech orally. Often times you will find things that can be improved upon once read aloud.
Goodluck, and can't wait to hear them. Remember they are due February 16th.
