  1. Hello, folks.
  2. Welcome back.
  3. Happy Thursday.
  4. I hope you're doing well.
  5. Let's get the day started.
  6. Alright, So I have a speech of the week today.
  7. Um, this is just a fun little performance skills video
  8. that's actually, uh, kind of presented from kids and little
  9. kids. And it's, I think it's entertaining.
  10. So it gives you really good pointers for how to
  11. be a better presenter.
  12. So be sure to watch it because you're presenting tomorrow,
  13. so it's kind of makes sense for where we're doing
  14. right now.
  15. Eso today you're focusing on your speeches and editing the
  16. presentation of your speech.
  17. So we've already written these out.
  18. Hopefully you've edited your speech.
  19. Hopefully, it looks good.
  20. You're feeling good about it.
  21. And now what you're gonna do is you're going to
  22. edit your speech and edit your performance and basically take
  23. what was given to you yesterday during the mock speeches
  24. and improve upon that.
  25. So as you work on this, here's here's your words
  26. there some recommendations that I would make when you are
  27. video when you were practicing and preparing for your final
  28. presentation tomorrow.
  29. So some recommendations I have would be to videotape yourself
  30. on dhe, Then watch it.
  31. It's kind of painful to do it, but it's really
  32. informative. And it really helps you figure out what your
  33. little ticks are and what kind of tendencies you have
  34. when you're presenting and how to improve upon that.
  35. And also working on just talking in front of a
  36. mirror, you could see your face.
  37. You can, uh, kind of analyze how you're speaking, those
  38. air recommendations that I would make that really can help
  39. you in your final presentation.
  40. Other things to work on our thio.
  41. Slow down, you're speaking.
  42. Remember that if you're speaking too quickly, we don't understand
  43. what you're saying and we're hearing the words that you're
  44. speaking first.
  45. We're we've never heard these before.
  46. We've never heard your speech before.
  47. You are familiar with it, but we're not.
  48. So it's important to slow down and really enunciate, So
  49. use your words and speak very clearly.
  50. Also use vocal variety.
  51. So again, we've talked about vocal variety in this class
  52. many times.
  53. But having variety in your voice being high being though,
  54. um, slowing down, speeding up, being loud, being soft, making
  55. your voice interesting so that we want to continue Thio
  56. listen. And lastly, not just reading off of the page,
  57. not just getting up there in during our zoom class
  58. and reading straight off of the speech, but being animated,
  59. um, looking at the camera, things like that.
  60. So those were just some things to work on as
  61. you continue.
  62. And then tomorrow we're going to be presenting our final
  63. speeches in class and I'm super excited.
  64. Thio hear that?
  65. As usual.
  66. If you have any questions, please let me know.
  67. But your homework today, it's just to make sure your
  68. speech is looking good for tomorrow.
  69. Other than that, have a great day.
  70. I'll see you later.
