* All students should have turned in their speech topic for approval. It was due October 24th.
* Speeches should be written and practiced at home. Information packets went home on October 21st outlining how to write the speech, as well as the judging sheet showing exactly what the speeches are judged on. Students will need to return the judging sheet on November 7th, the day of the contest.
* Practice makes perfect! Please time your child while they give their speech. It should last between 2 and 3 minutes. Only notecards with a speech outline are allowed during the presentation. Speeches CANNOT be read!
Good luck, and may the best speech win!!
