Material Detail

Sparkling is the word! In this lesson, students will investigate transforming an exciting student-created expository into an engaging and quality speech using resources from the classroom and the school media center. Students will listen to a remarkable Martin Luther King speech provided by YouTube, confer with classmates on speech construction, and use a variety of easy to access materials (included with this lesson) during the construction of their speech. The lesson allows for in-depth trials and experiments with expository writing and speech writing. In one exciting option, students may use a "Speech Forum" to safely practice their unique speeches in front of a small non-assessing audience of fellow students. A complete exploration and comprehension of introductions, main ideas with support details, and an engaging conclusion transformed into a student speech with a written exam are the final assessments for this memorable lesson.
