For our next writing unit, the 5th grade all wrote speeches that related to our Unit of Inquiry, technology. We all had to choose a technology and write a speech about...
- Why it is the best
- What we need to do with it (use it less, more often)
- What is wrong about it
ETC!
I decided on a technology that was quite popular in my class, which was Social Media. My speech was trying to get people to take caution while on/using social media. I decided on this topic, because this is a REAL problem in our world and that people aren't using it correctly or responsibly. After a week or so to research and prepare/write our speech, we each had to present our speech in front of the class. After everyone who wanted to be chosen to talk in the Bolshoi gave their speech, our class voted on our top 2/3 people who had the best speech. I WAS ONE OF THEM!!! Yay!! Sussie and Lina were also chosen to speak and I was super exited. On February 15th, we gave our speech along with other people from 5th grade in the Bolshoi for "Kid Talks" in front of 5th grade, 4th grade and parents. It was sort of nerve-raking at first, but then I felt like I've accomplished another part of my dream career, a writer. Here is the link to my speech:
