One-Minute Speeches, Round 3: November 30, 2018

Focus: What delivery skills do we need to practice?

1. Warming up by circling the wagon with your personal speech goals

2. Assigning roles, being an empathetic audience, and delivering your speeches

a. Assign one time keeper
  • Hold up your hand when there are 10 seconds left. 
  • The speaker must remain standing for at least 50 seconds, even if that person runs out of things to say. 
  • You can let the speaker go 10 seconds over, but then you have to cut him/her off.
b. Assign someone to film each speech (optional, but encouraged). 
  • The filmer must send the video to the speech giver once all the speeches have been given.
c. Please be efficient in transitioning from one speaker to the next. MAKE SURE ANY SLIDES YOU MAY HAVE ARE IN YOUR SHARED FOLDER.

3. Reviewing your goal: Did you meet it? If so, how did you improve? If not, what do you need to work on over the next two weeks?
