More Speeches
Today we watched this incredibly confident boy give a speech to 20,000 educators! Think about the important features of his speech. What things can you use to influence your speech? This is a wonderful example of how to pace yourself, use expression and use dynamics to bring the audience along with you.
Speeches
Yesterday we watched a few video clips to inspire us to write good speeches. We viewed Martin Luther King's 'I Had A Dream' and tried to understand Winston Churchill's accent in his 'We Shall Fight Them On The Beaches'. Then we watched a very thought provoking speech from a NZ Polynesian boy.
What did you learn about writing speeches from these clips?
What was your reaction to the 'Brown Brother' speech?
Get your parents to watch it and ask them to leave a comment about their thoughts.

Grandma, Grandma
Check out how well we worked with our buddies last week to teach them the hand actions for Grandma, Grandma. We had so much fun. Some of our buddies were great at picking it up and others needed some practise...Ms Bevan!! We are looking forward to learning some more of these singing games for the playground and teaching them to our buddies.
