Language Arts Philosophy Speech Criteria
Content of Speech:
Book Talk (maybe we'll do another one in May, what do you say?)
In Your Own Words
Plot Summary: What is the story about?

Literary Analysis: Authors style (first person, tone, mood)
Personal Opinion: Did you like the novel? Why or why not?
Presentation Style:
That's right. Everyone is going to be an online celebrity. Well, not really. It would be great to see all of the faces in division one again. What better way than to have you prepare a couple of short speeches that you can present to everyone in the class, online, after rehearsing 8 - 9- 10 times in the comfort of your own home.
They should not be more than one minute in length (that includes pauses between words}. One minute is not very long at all. To demonstrate, stare at a spot on the wall for one minute, without moving your body.
Ready? Go. And,......Stop.
Well, did it feel like an eternity? Yeah? You're right. It does.
