How To Write A Moroe-Personal Narrative

Decent Essays
Personally I think i did very well on my speech, I did have one big pause, and skipped some of my script. Monroe's Motivated Sequence did not go so well. I didn't/forgot to follow the sequence, but I tried to recover the speech through plain persuasion. I did not feel nervous going first, I felt bold and felt like I had the most power over the other speeches due to the fact I would probably get the most attention, unfortunately, i got a lot of attention from the teacher. All together this was a great unit, I had fun with it, and truly believed in what I was speaking

    More or less, I got the reaction I wanted from the audience. I felt like it was not so boring that I lost anyone, and I definitely got a couple laughs at some of the jokes I tried. If I were to rewrite or perform my speech again, I’d probably do a few things differently. The main thing I’d do differently, would be to look up from the paper more. Before giving my speech, I did not think this would be a challenge, but once I was actually up there with all my nerves, I found it pretty difficult, to sustain speaking without looking at my script.…

    As a child growing up in Rhode Island, the smallest state in the Union, the idea of a vast planet brimming with civilization and culture was more like something out of a fairy tale than it was reality. So, when my father announced that we would be leaving the country to go to Scotland, the home of his and my ancestors, my world began to expand at a rapid pace. This trip could not have been timed more perfectly. The summer of 2007 marked the end of fourth grade, my first year at Saint Mary Academy Bay View.…

    So i'm going to be meditative in my essay because when i write about my feelings i feel so much better and i don't really have a best friend to really talk to and maybe this isn't like meditative but it helps me concentrate and actually have something interesting to write about. Everything i change will be in blue writing, and so far while rereading my essay I started a lot of sentences with “So” So to start of I joined a sorority and m not trying to be those typical “it was the best decision of my life” because it's really not. Like I could've been better without doing it but i made that decision to be in it…

    Last Speech Reflection

    As a whole, I do not believe that this was my best speech, but there were parts of this speech that I believe that I did better on than the last speech. Like B.B. King I love to learn and hope that in my next speech I will notice new areas of growth in my speaking ability. My reflection begins with eye contact and body movement, moving on to the use of voice, and ending with the organization of the speech. Opening with delivery, the thing that stuck out the most was that my eye contact was poor at best. In the beginning of the speech, I looked around more, but when I came to material I did not know as well, my eyes were glued to the page.…
