Speech Sharing

Tolafa Lava,

How many times have you done speeches in your lives so far?
I've done 4!

A few weeks ago, I shared a blog post about my speech and some little imformation around it as well as my intro. Well, in Week 5 it was shareback time for the speeches. Everyone had to share their speech to their homebase across the week. Everyone's speech had to be either on: Racism, Sexism, Ablism or Religous Discrimination. While presenting your speech, you were being timed and assessed by a buddy and your homebase teacher. On that rubric was 4 coloums. Each coloum represented a number between 1 and 4. Those numbers were points. If the teacher or buddy ticked it you would get that many points depending on how well the teacher and your buddy think you went. The time limit that you speech had to be was 4 minutes and 15 secs. I made the cut which was amazing! I know have to wait for the results to see if I get into the speech finals. (If they have speech finals!)

Down Below is my speech.
Please feel free to leave comments on how well I wrote this blog as well as how well I wrote my speech!!

How to jump start your Speech!

Tolafa Lava everyone!

Over the last couple of weeks, my hub have been talking about speeches and the topics that we could do them on. In week 5, we will be presenting out speech to our homebase and trying to persuade those people in the homebase to stop what that person is talking about. E.G Racism, Plastic etc...
This term our speech topic for the speeches has to be around our PBL which is Discrmination.
My topic for this terms speeches is on Racism and how we can stop it.
Down below is my intro for my speech on Racism. (On a Google Slide!)

Has my intro persuaded you to keep on listening to my speech? Have you ever done speeches before? If not, why don't you give it a go? If you have, what was your speech?

Scary Speeches!!

Bonjour Everyone!

Today in this blog post, I will be talking about speeches.
Enjoy!

On Monday 20th August 2018 and Tuesday 21st August 2018, the Kaupeka hub presented speeches to their homebase. (I'm Homebase 1). We were doing this because the teachers wanted to see how awesome we were with writing speeches and who would stand out to the teachers so they could choose who would go to the speech semi finals and then finals. On Monday after morning tea, we started the speeches. I was really nervous and definitely did not want to go first. Guess what! My teacher (Miss Hansen) picked me to go first. AHHHH! I had so many butterflys in my stomach but when I started reading, I got more confident and then felt  fine. Your probably wondering what my speech was on. Well it was on why primrary aged students should recieve homework. When my class found out, everyone hated me. Over the rest of that day and Tuesday everyone had presented some awesome speeches. I was very impressed!

Here is the first paragraph of my speech:

Have you ever heard people say things like my dog ate my homework! What do I do now? Well that is one commonly excuse that children LOVE to use to get out of doing their homework. Did you know that only 17% of people do their homework each day! Now that’s hardly any! In this speech today, I will be talking to you about three main points that are based on homework and why you should do your homework.

Before I end this blog post, I would like to say a congrats to the people who got into the semi finals. I didn't which was a shame, but I am still very proud of myself and the people who got in.

Have you ever presented a speech before? What was your topic? Did you enjoy presenting? Why? Why not?
