speeches there are and how they are applied. They will learn this through a video on the types of
speeches and a video on entertainment speeches, a poster with a QR code that leads to a speech

students will show what they learned through a brief two minute entertainment speech that they
wrote, that they will present in front of the class. They must present the speech to a 100% degree.
Selection of Method: Students will learn the types of speeches through a video from YouTube.
They will take notes and list the types of speeches. They will then view a video on entertainment
speeches then take notes on that. After the videos, they will be allowed to view a poster with a
QR code that will lead to a website that aids in speech writing. The poster will advertise a speech
