Hello Bloggers!
Welcome back to my blog.
In Rimu, we are going to be writing our speeches. When I first heard about it, I got really excited because I like to make speeches and it's fun to present as well as choosing a topic I am passionate about.
But hold your horses!
(okay, I don't actually own any horses but if you do, hold them if you like -_-)
Before we start actually writing our speeches, we did an activity to put our minds into the 'ready-to-do-speeches' state. We did this by creating a visual representation that has the 6 tools from Mental Toughness for motivation!
The 6 tools are -
| Positive Thinking | Goal Setting | Attentional Control | Visualisation | Anxiety Control | Self Awareness |
We had to put some phrases or words that represent these 6, well, 5 because Visualisation is the drawing itself :) We used google drawings to create this. My dream for how my speech will go is that I am able to pick a good topic and to be able to engage with the audience well.
While I was creating the drawing I was constantly thinking about what others and what I will be doing my speech about. The hardest part of doing a speech would probably gathering information and actually writing a good speech. The easiest bit for me to do would probably be to present because I am a pretty confident public speaker.
If you would like to leave a comment for me maybe you could use these as your sentence starters...
Positive - I liked the way you...
Thoughtful - You brought me back to when...
Helpful - I noticed that...
Have you done speeches before?
Do you like doing them (writing & presenting)?
What do you find hard about speeches?
Enjoy!
Oh yeah!
and before you go (please comment first!) arrotscay means 'carrots' in pig latin. Everybody learned the language today :D
