Speeches - Home Fun

Over the next two weeks Pod 4 children are going to write their own speech to share with the class in Week 6. They are doing this for Home Fun.

We have listened to speeches and come up with some great success criteria to help us produce brilliant, interesting speeches.

Our Success Criteria (what we will include/do)

• Clear, easy to hear voice


• Important information that makes sense


• Topic words e.g. scrum, conversion, population


• Use expression in our voice


• Give eye contact to the audience


• Use a steady pace of voice


• Stand still in one spot but use some hand/face gestures


• Have an introduction, middle and end


• Use a visual cue to help us explain


• Add "did you know" or rhetorical questions


• Practise LOTS in front of people at home or the mirror


• Link ideas using words like firstly, lastly, next, another idea
