Famous Egyptians Speech Reminder
You will be presenting your Famous Egyptians Speech next period. You must be in costume to help accurately present the person/god you chose, and you must turn in all of your work. That means you have at least two full pages of notes, from at least two different sources, your finished web, and your printed citations.
Date you will be presenting your speech:
Block B, C and D: Thursday, March 6th
Block H: Friday, March 7th
REMINDER: You must turn in all of your work on the presentation day! You should staple the following information in order with the rubric on top.
• Rubric/web
• Typed Draft
• Research Records
• Citations
NOTE: The assignment, rubric, and brainstorming web are all on my resource page.
HELPFUL TIPS:
Introduction- This should be catchy, interesting, and a reflection of you as a speaker! You want to arouse your audiences curiosity.
• Hook- interesting or emotional comment used to catch reader’s attention
• General Comments- interesting background information (define key terms)
• Thesis Statement- specific topic of the essay/explains ideas of the body paragraphs
Conclusion- The reader should see the importance of your essay, and finish thinking about what you have said.
• Ideas of thesis statement- use different words than those in the introduction
• Comments- may include a summary of the main ideas, an evaluation of other ideas, connections to audience, and/or the speaker’s opinion,
• Final statement- a final thought that ties up the topic
GOOD LUCK! I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE EVERYONE PERFORM!
