CPA Info:
CPA reports are due no later than this Thursday, 10/12. Please time yourself reading your speech aloud and include the time at the end of your report. If your time is less than 4 minutes, you do not yet have enough information and need to research and add more.
Over Fall Break, practice, practice, practice your speech! Try to present to as many people as possible. Grandparents, aunts and uncles, and family friends are all great audiences. Your pets are good listeners too! Practice!
On Thursday, 10/26, bring your speech and visual aids (poster, trifold, props, etc.) to school for in-class practice. This is a “dress rehearsal” though you don’t need to dress up. We will provide feedback on your performance so that you can continue to improve until you present to the judges on Tuesday, October 31.
