Speeches!
This week, students are finishing their research papers and moving into speech preparation. Working with this packet, students will plan, prepare, practice, and present informative speeches about the person they've been studying over the past few weeks. Speeches begin on Wednesday, May 8th. I look forward to having students become the teachers, as they teach their classmates about the influential American they've studied.
