10-31 (A Day) Happenings

I will not be in class during 1/2 A today as I am attending a technology seminar.

We reviewed the Packer Contest and checked supplies. I checked for students who were missing Blog Log #1. I checked the rough draft of the Personal Experience Speech. I explained the details of presenting the Personal Experience Speech and answered questions pertaining to the speech. Students practiced presenting their speech to their Pair & Share partner. I demonstrated how to use the Personal Experience Speech Outline Template from Edline in preparing the final draft of the the Personal Experience Speech. I also showed students how to use the numbering and increasing indent and decreasing indent buttons in Microsoft Word. Students spent the remainder of the class preparing their final draft of the Personal Experience Speech Outline.

It's normal to feel nervous. Think back to our Fear Module. It's important to think positive. You will do a great job!
