The power of effective speaking

 

Part 1: Post a Response

Today, you received an invitation from the president of the school board asking you to deliver an informative speech at Everytown High School. Because students at Everytown High School are currently studying global climate change, the president of the school board would like you to address this topic as well.

Review the sources listed below and choose the one you would use in your informative speech. Thoroughly explain why the source is a good choice.

• A book entitled The Guide to Global Climate Change (published in 2015).
• A prerecorded interview with an employee at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center.
• A documentary film explaining global climate change.

Part 2: Respond to a Peer

Read a post by at least one of your peers and respond, making sure to extend the conversation by asking questions, offering rich ideas, or sharing personal connections.
