LAM Speech Meet
A Note from Mrs. Clemons:
Speech Meet - February 9
This will last all day. Your child has a speech picked out so please help him / her to memorize the speech and add the dynamics listed below.
District Speech Meet in Spokane - March 2
Two students from each division within each class will be able to participate in the District Speech Meet. Please reserve this date in case your child wins the position to advance to the next step.
Speech Guidelines
The following information has been covered with your students, but it would be helpful if you went over this information with your child too.
1. Eye contact should be with the audience, not with the judges.
2. No costumes or props of any kind are permitted.
3. Presentations are not timed.
4. All presentations must be memorized in entirety (no notes or notecards)
5. There is a 3 second waiting time between their introduction and the speech, then a 3 second waiting time before they end with "Thank you".
6. Speeches are judged on variance of voice, projection, and dynamics. Please encourage this with your child.
Again, feel free to call me or write if you have any questions.
