    Kia Ora Y7.  This week, we move over to speeches. Last week, I asked you to think of certain topics for speech that you are passionate about. This week, we will study and discuss what goes into an effective speech. You will plan your speech using the given planning template. You will write your speech on a Google doc. Remember it has to be your own speech. You will write it YOURSELF. Have a look at the speech exemplars under resources though you need to have your own ideas for your speech. You will present your speeches as your Assessment 2.

    You are required to construct and deliver an oral presentation of about 2 to 4 minutes in a formal setting. You can choose your own topic but the subject of your presentation could also be from the following:

    • a theme studied in class

    • a topical issue that arises from wide reading

    • something related with the context of Term 1 or Term 

    Collaboration: The speech topic can be your own choice OR from what you have learnt in Term 1 or 2 in English, Global Studies, P.E./Health, Science and/or Math. Speak to your Learning Areas' teachers to see if you can pick a topic.
