Preparing our camp speeches

One of our Camp Kawau traditions is the speech competition.  Everyone has to write and present a speech and the classroom winners present their speech again at camp.  We have been learning what types of speeches we could write and how to best deliver them.

We have talked about using the hamburger model and that writing a speech is like any other piece of writing.  It needs an introduction, a sequence of events or ideas and a conclusion.  We have to decide what our topic is and whether we are going to inform, persuade or entertain our audience.
