- left my audience with something to think about
Activities:
Monday S4: Introduce speech writing/topics - Choosing topics - google classroom tasks - listening to speeches together.
Tuesday S4: Check point for speech topics
A good idea - google 'speech topics' for yr 7 students :o) Your speech may be Informative, Persuasive or Entertaining or a mix of all 3!
After watching a few 'good speeches' on google classroom write in your English book 5 points which are the same across all the speeches - record together on whiteboard and add to your own list :o)
begin to plan, write and edit your speeches - you may like to 'run' your speech topic past a buddy for some feedback and feed forward
Friday S5: Continue to plan and write your speeches. Recored on a google doc that is shared with classmates. look at the planning template on google classroom
