Public Speaking 2010

Public Speaking for Grades 4/5 will be held in the gym on Thursday, April 22, after lunch. Things should get started around 12:45.

This year, Division 7 students did a truly fine job on their speeches. It is too bad that only 3 can be picked to go to the gym!

Congratulations to Nolan, Cam and Avri for making the final cut, and well done to everyone else for making my job of choosing the finalists so difficult!

Good luck on Thursday!

Homework due Friday, March 26

Speech outline - yellow sheet - subtopic details should be completed and yellow sheet returned to school by THURSDAY (to ensure that everyone has their work at school on Friday)
- speech does not have to be written in paragraph form yet - we will work on this on Friday

The speeches are written in essay format - ie. introduction, subtopics, conclusion.

It will be at LEAST 2 weeks before we begin presenting speeches formally. Until then, it's practice practice practice!
