Eisteddfod Speech Assessment

Name: _______________  Topic: ________________________   November 2016

Writing:

• Write a speech sequencing ideas logically.

Do this using the Hamburger format by:

• Having an appetising introduction – an exciting question or ‘did you know’, and tell briefly about the other things that will be in the speech.
• Layers: each layer will be about a different part of the speech topic, each layer will flow to the next layer, because it makes sense to speak about it next.
• Conclusion: will remind the audience about what the speech has been about, or leave the audience with a thought provoking question.

Presenting/Speaking:

• Speak clearly so the audience can hear all that is said.
• Maintain the interest of the audience by speaking slowly and carefully, trying to change the tone of voice, and by using pictures or other props.
• Become so familiar with the material that there is eye contact with the audience.
