WALT: We are reviewing how to produce a quality blog post and comments.
Last Friday team 5 had three students from each class present a speech that they've been working on for the past four weeks. We called it "the finals" for saying speeches, It was an amazing experience while
watching other students around my age present their speech so confidently.
Most appealing to you? and Why?
From my perspective, Amelia Feleti's speech was the most appealing to me. Amelia's speech was about how her grandma passed away and she realized that her job wasn't the reason why she was happy, It was because her grandma was able to see Amelia and her siblings everyday. She used descriptive words which made it more interesting for me to listen, I personally think it was emotional for her to read but she had enough confidence to push through and continue on with her amazing speech. I definitely think she has a chance of winning the speech contest.
Which speech was the most entertaining? Most thought Provoking?
Mubashshir Shafil was the most entertaining from my point of view, He had funny points/reasons and also added a little of actions to spice it up. Mubashshir speech was about: If I were a president for a day, He'd do many things while becoming one as he is a president for just ONE day. Muba had plans, He would show his kindness around and make sure others get the same amount, People are treated the
same and not valued differently just because of the way they look. I reckon Mubashshir had a lot of reasons and it did give me thoughts of what I could of done.

If you were to give another speech in literacy what are 3 things you would work on improving?
If I were to give another speech I would work on my topic, reasons/points and projecting my voice louder. I thought my topic was good but not interesting enough for others to listen to, I needed to work on explaining my points more and add a little bit more of descriptive words. I think I'll need a bit more practice as I still find it hard to speak in a normal class of 20-30 kids.
Throughout this time it was a great experience to have, I found it interesting and entertaining as not one person didn't give up on saying their speech. From my thoughts I definitely think this would give them a perspective of what they would do with this talent in the future. Overall I thought it was amazing, Everyone was great!
