Speech Day

We have been learning to write and present our speeches. We had to persuade the audience to think our way. The Olympics was our theme.
The criteria we had to use to write and present our speech included, an introduction, delivery, content and our conclusion. In your introduction you should put strong words straight away because if you don't the reader might not want to carry on reading.In my introduction I got shy when I was talking.  I think I could have done better with my introduction.

My delivery was alright but I should have scanned the room. I couldn't speak with confidence and I wished I could do it better.  I didn't know my words by heart and thats why I think I got lower points.  Some of my words were powerful and only a mature audience knew what those words meant, I had some facts to back up my statements. My speech was between 2:30 and 2:40 minutes. 

In my conclusion I wrapped my speech up and I thanked my audience for listening me. I think I did alright for myself.  I'm actully quite proud of myself for getting up in front of our whole school and reading my speech out to them.  I am just glad that time is over.
