My School Life Speech for Students and Children

My school life speech.

Memories have been the part and parcel of my life, much like everyone else. We remember the good days which have gone by and the bad ones as well. One of the good memories in life is definitely of their school life. In fact, it is considered to be the best phase of their lives by many. A student knows the importance of school life and they consider it the golden period of their life. And why should it not be? It is the first truly impactful thing in one’s life and the importance of it can never be disproved. Read my school life speech here.

A Learning Experience

My school life was surely a learning experience. The confidence and motivation it gave me, I couldn’t get anywhere else. Most importantly, it is the place where I recognized my uniqueness and individuality. My school life is no less than a treasure for me which gave me invaluable joys in life.

It is where I started by learning the alphabet and can now solve equations using the same. The warm welcome I received when I first started my school is something I will never forget. It is what also defines why my school life is so important to me.

My school life helped me learn about the things which were first mysterious to me. For instance, I got answers to many questions that were always at the back of my mind. It helped me gain knowledge and excel in studies. It is through my school life that I realized I have the talent of being a painter.

The things I have learned over the course of my school life will always stay with me forever. In fact, had it not been for my school life, I would’ve missed out on so many things. The knowledge, experience and memories, I owe it all to my incredible school life.

It has indeed been an unforgettable journey which will remain in my heart forever. My school life was filled with lots of excitement and love. It made me understand the value of time and became a wonderful chapter in my life.

It is definitely the period where I found myself and learned a great deal about myself. My school life helped me learn dedication and self-actualization. My teachers motivated me and pushed me to achieve my best which is a big part of what I am today.

Most importantly, I earned friends here. Friends who will remain so for my entire lifetime. One of the greatest blessings of my school life has indeed been my friends. They were the ones who made this journey unforgettable and easy.

They helped me when I was down and elevated me when I was up. Moreover, they gave me strength and the courage to try out new things. My most memorable moments have been the ones spent with my friends. Other than that, I will remember the times we spent in the school canteen during recess. Each day was magical in my school life.

As we all know that the first and last day of our school life is the most memorable days. I entered my school weeping and even while leaving, I have the same tears in my eyes. The difference being the former was for not wanting to go and the latter is for not wanting to leave. They joys my school life has given are surely countless and will remain to be the best days of my life.

Students Share Their Best School Experiences and What We Can Learn From Them

• Share article

Today, five students from my classes contribute short pieces about their favorite moments, and what others might be able to learn from them.

Response From Leslie Servin

During my time in high school I had it really good moments, but my best moments that I’ve experienced are in a particular class during my senior year, in Sacramento, Calif. So I was basically a new student in these kind of classes and also I’m English learner. I remember my first presentation in this class. I didn’t want to do it, but finally I did it and that one was my best moment. When I went to present I felt afraid, and then when I presented I felt so good for the effort I applied on. Now I feel so much better than my first day of presentations because I now know that I can do whatever I want to do. The learnings that I acquire made it so good this moment because I know that I have to trust on me. Something teachers or students can learn from my experience is that we have to overcome our fears and not let them control ourselves because we can’t know our capabilities if we are afraid.

Response From Jesneel Singh

The best moment in class was when I was in 9th grade in sixth period. That was when I got into poetry and spoken word. Having that “character and scene” class made my life even greater. Not knowing anything about poetry, hating on poems about reading and writing it in the past. That class was fun in many ways. For example; there was this one time where we had to write our own plays and poems and perform them in front of the class. I felt alive, and the creative side of me came out. When I wrote my first poem in freshman year. I realized that it was fun and unique. I felt like I wanted to write more and more. When I performed my first poem to that class I found my passion. Since that day and today I have written over 400 poems and made two books. I have performed on many stages in small audience and in school. That was a good day for me because I can write my thoughts down and write the truth about the world. Teachers and students can learn from this experience that, you can find what best fits you.

Response From Nancy Ramirez

I would say my best class moment would be from my sophomore year in high school. For my Spanish class, our teacher decided we would do a class circle (Editor’s note: see “How To Practice Restorative Justice in Schools” for more information on class circles) for the day. She asked us a sequence of questions which required us to give a more in depth and heartfelt answer each time, starting with something along the lines of “How are you feeling?” and ending with “Why do you think that is?” A class circle which only should have lasted one day extended to three, with each and every single one of us having to share our deepest and darkest fears and insecurities. By then it felt more than just a class and opened my eyes to very different ways of teaching styles. I believe there is much to learn from this experience, both then and now. I have come to deeply appreciate not only the class but the teacher as well. This experience showed me the extent a relationship with your classmates and your teacher can go....

Response From Oscar Salazar

The best moment I’ve ever experienced in school was last year when I was a sophomore. I took biology last year and towards the end of the year we got to dissect a fetal pig. I know that it sounds gross but it’s really not. That’s what I thought at first too. I did lots of fun experiments in that class that were new to me, such as making a small ecosystem in a bottle and dissecting owl pellets to find mouse skeletons. I think that these experiences were really fun and interesting. I’ve never done anything like that in a class before.

I think that when teachers introduce students to hands-on activities and projects the students enjoy it more. Since we have more energy it’s a good use of it. We learn better when we’re allowed to move around and be creative. Our lives aren’t going to be pen on paper or books forever. It’s best to get us students to explore the world using our skills that we learn and strengthen our understanding of daily life that is sometimes hidden from us and exposed to us abruptly once we turn into adults.

Response From Kayla Guzman

What has been my best moment in a class? I’ve had many great moments but perhaps the most best moment took place in my English class about a month ago. I had a 10-15 minute presentation and I felt pretty confident. 30 minutes before my presentation I decided to incorporate an actor for visual appeal, to correspond with my presentation. I felt even more confident, assure that I would captivate the audience’s attention and keep them engaged. When my presentation started, I gave a signal to my actor which led me to drop my 8 notecards all over the floor. I was aware that the time was ticking, so I quickly grabbed all the notecards off the floor. I became overwhelmed with embarrassment, listening to the echoing laughter of the audience as I tried to rearrange the cards. The cards in my hand then became extremely restraining. My anxiety levels rose, and the disorganized cards just added stress to my emotions. I placed the cards down, and felt a great sense of relieve. My words, my explanations, my connections all flowed out my mouth with harmony, and I felt more natural and free as I presented my topic.

My presentation was a diagnosis of a character with schizophrenia, explaining the symptoms and the reasoning behind my diagnosis. The movement of my hands and my exaggeration presented by a drive of passion, along with my visual representative, kept the audience captive. I felt like a completely different person. By the end of the presentation I was sweaty, not by nervousness but because I left it all on the floor. I realized that the key to presenting with people is not getting their attention just by visual appeal. You need to let your heart pour out so that you can captivate their hearts, reach their souls. You can’t just be the center of attention, you need to give the audience attention, you need to talk to them. First and foremost, you can’t present without emotions. Anything you present should be built off of passion. As long as you can find a connection between yourself and the topic and exude your passion, you will keep the audience engaged.

Thanks to Nancy, Jesneel, Kayla, Leslie, and Oscar for their contributions!

My School Speech - 10 Lines, Short and Long Speech

We all went to school, and we have cared for and loved each and every moment in school, as those are the building blocks of our lives. The school is the first place where people can get education and knowledge. It is a platform that enhances one's personality. In Hinduism, school is called the "temple of knowledge".

10 lines on school:

Short speech on school, long speech on school.

A school is a place or institution where we first start our education.

Teachers carry out the teaching tasks at schools, and students are made to learn through guidance.

There is a strong rapport between the teacher and the student. Teachers motivate students to learn.

Apart from education, students also learn discipline and etiquette.

All the students are treated equally at the school.

The modern-day schools are different from the ancient schools.

It helps with mental and social development.

It also helps students learn new skills.

There are some schools that not only provide education on subjects but also traditional education like the vedas.

There are three types of schooling—primary and secondary and senior secondary.

Schools are known as temples of knowledge. Schools provide a balanced education that strengthens students both physically and mentally. Not only academics, but schools also concentrate on different activities that include sports, cultural activities, communication skills, and time management.

School days are one of everyone's favorite memories. It is known to be the best phase of one's life. My school days were a learning experience for me. where I started learning the alphabets and can now solve real-world problems. What I learned in school will always be with me. It was an unforgettable journey that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

I studied at a school that taught me etiquette, time management, and discipline. It has the capacity to produce toppers. The best quality of my school is that, apart from academics, it also focuses on sports.

My school holds a variety of science quizzes and sports competitions to help students improve their grades. My school is a home where my teachers are like parents and my friends are like family who care for each other. My school has taught me self-discipline. Schools have a great culture and environment.

We do know that the first and last days of our school were memorable days. We arrive at school with an empty bag, and we leave with a bag full of memories, learnings, and emotions.

School teaches us what is right and wrong, good and bad, the importance of discipline, and the importance of time. Teachers encourage students to grow intellectually. Teachers play an extraordinary role in transmitting their knowledge to students.

School is a place where we socialize, grow, learn, and establish ourselves . Teachers guide us when we are in need. Teachers are known as the foundation of any educational institution.

Before entering the real world, students learn how to think at school. Students are exposed to new ideas, and they are encouraged to develop their critical thinking. Consuming knowledge in new subjects can improve children's skills and help them grow exponentially.

We also learn about teamwork through different activities. They offer a variety of activities to help teams function better. They aid in the preparation, guidance, and training of the bright mind for the future. The best schools always produce the best students.

There is a famous saying that "one book, one pen, one child, and one teacher can change the whole world."

My School Experience

My high school helped me grow as a person inside and outside of the classroom by making me more confident and independent. My school has taught me the importance of independence. My high school days are fully filled with fun and excitement .

In high school, one becomes mature enough to understand the values. In that phase, I learned to direct myself. I learned about hard work and dedication toward my goal. My friends used to guide me when I was in need. I have some good pictures of them. The pictures from my school days are the best memories. I remember the days when we used to participate in extracurricular activities.

I have good memories of middle school. It was not just into academics and sports but also included music, dance, and some indoor games. My school had a library where different types of books were placed. It also used to have a robotics lab and a computer lab where highly trained staff helped us learn new skills. Our teachers not only taught the lessons but also helped us attend various competitions. I even represented my school in a quiz competition and won a prize for the school.

The biggest reason behind the success of my school is our principal. He is very active and disciplined, and his knowledge is commendable. The experiences we get in school life help us grow as humans. Everyone should remember that not everyone is fortunate enough to receive an education, so if the opportunity arises, one should seize it.

Importance of Education

Many people don't know the importance of education, and being educated plays an important role in society. Education shapes the modern world.

An educated person can understand moral values better than an uneducated person. So, education creates a better society.

People can overcome all problems by finding optimal solutions with the help of education. Education is known as the backbone of society.

Education leads to innovation and creativity. They occur when an educated or skilled person understands how to advance technology.

Education helps every individual develop their personality. It helps them to develop their ethical values, sympathy, empathy toward society, etc.

The government should take some steps to create awareness among the citizens and make society better.

A good speech in school will earn you the admiration of your teachers and peers alike. You probably won't deliver the kind of speech you hear in the movies, but that's a good thing: people will enjoy your original take much more. From getting an idea to conquering stage fright, here are the steps to take if you want to make your final speech a memorable, exciting success.

Sample Speeches

Writing the Speech

• If you're not sure which theme to choose, write down or summarize a few stories and statements you could include in your speech. Pick the ones you like best and see if there's a unifying theme to tie them together.
• See What to Do and What Not to Do for more advice on themes.

• Don't interrupt one point with a clause, or section set aside by commas or parentheses. Instead of saying "Our tennis and basketball teams, which we all know won the regional championships two years ago, need increased funding to compete," say "Our tennis and basketball teams both won the regional championships two years ago. Now we need to increase their funding to compete with other schools."
• You can reference your school's slang once or twice to get a laugh, but don't overdo it, especially if there are parents in the audience.

• Find a broad message that your whole audience can connect to their own life, but still deals with a specific idea. For instance: "Become an even better version of the hero who inspired you." (But don't steal your "original" idea from this website!)
• Your stories can be specific incidents in your life or from history, but you should connect them to a more general idea. For instance, you could tell a story about your sibling's hospital visit, then go on to talk about overcoming fear and hardship in general.
• If you like what you're writing but it doesn't fit the theme you had planned, it's fine to adjust your topic or switch it entirely. Switch back and forth between writing stories and brainstorming a theme if you keep getting stuck.

• Surprise your audience by diving right into a tough story. "When I was ten years old, I lost my father."
• Make your audience laugh by telling a joke, especially one that everyone in the room will get. "Hello everyone. Let's have a round of applause for the guy who installed air conditioning."
• Start with a grand, thought-provoking statement. "Our galaxy contains billions of earth-like planets, and we're only just beginning to discover them."
• Most likely, someone else will introduce you, and many of your classmates know you already. Unless you're asked specifically to introduce yourself, you can get right to the good stuff.

• To use an example from earlier, if your theme is "Become an even better version of the hero who inspired you," you could begin your speech with two or three sentence about your hero, then say "You all have heroes who inspire you, but you don't have to just follow them. You can become even greater than the people you look up to."

• Include phrases such as "Now I'd like to talk about..." and "But we should also remember..." when moving on to your next idea.

• Build up to a big ending, then crack a joke to wrap up a funny speech. "And I know when you walk to the ballot box tomorrow, you'll be ready to do the right thing. Protect the interests of yourself and your school by washing your hands afterward. Do you know how many people touch that thing?"
• If you're giving a commencement speech, leave people feeling excited or awed about the future. This is a big moment and you have the power to help them realize it. "Years from now, you will be the father or mother your kid looks up to. The writer who changes the way we think. The inventor who creates new ways to live. Come up to the stage and start becoming heroes!"

• Have a teacher, family member, or trusted friend check it over for grammar mistakes and offer feedback. Spelling isn't as important, since you'll be speaking out loud.

• If your topic involves a lot of numbers, plan to write them on the board so your audience can remember them

• Your notes are there to remind you what to say next and of important facts. "Move on to bear wrestling story (guy's name is Paul Bunyan)" is the level of detail you need.

Practicing and Delivering the Speech

• Practice giving your speech in as situation as similar to your actual speech as possible.
• In general, you should stay fairly still while giving a speech. Small hand gestures and occasionally moving to a new spot are fine, especially if they help you feel and appear confident

• If you speech is too long, you absolutely need to cut some material out of it or shorten the longer stories or ideas. If you're giving a commencement speech, aim for a 10 or 15 minute maximum. An election speech should be no more than a few minutes, and your teacher should be able to tell you the time limit for a class assignment speech.

• If you can't stop rushing, work out how long you should spend on each section and write the number of minutes at the top of each index card or paragraph. Practice near a clock so you can check whether you're on pace.

• Use slightly different words each time once you have the main ideas down. Try not to get caught up on exact memorization; using a new phrase to communicate the written idea makes your speech sound more natural.

• Practice varying your facial expression if your face looks fixed and mechanical.
• Try to vary the tone of your voice as well. Don't make it sound like you're reciting every word from memory; pretend you're speaking in ordinary conversation.

• Try to make eye contact with different members of your audience throughout the speech. Don't stare at any one person for too long.
• Resist the temptation to hide by standing near a corner or large object.
• Don't fidget, tap your foot, or make other nervous gestures. Try slowly walking back and forth across the stage to get rid of your nervous energy.

• Dressing nicely will increase your confidence and gain respect and attention from your audience.

What to Do and What Not to Do

• Memories your class shares and personal memories that many people will connect to, such as your first day at the school.
• Overcoming obstacles. Talk about how your classmates overcame problems related to academics, finances, and health, and how proud everyone is that they're standing here.
• The diversity of your classmates and celebrating the rich variety of experiences, personalities, and interests at your school. Describe some of the many ways people will go on to do good in the world.

• Address your audience directly. Ask them questions to get them thinking, although you shouldn't expect an answer.
• Use groups of three. The human brain loves repetition, and especially trios. Start three sentences with the same phrase, speaking louder each sentence.
• Use emotive language. Try to provoke a strong emotional response in your audience, not present a list of facts to them.

• Don't tell stories that only a few friends will understand. Even references that your whole class will get should be used sparingly if there are parents in the room as well.

• Go change the world!
• Today is not the last day of your education, but the first.
• The future belongs to you.
• If elected, I will be the voice of the students.
• It's time for change!

• If you're giving a high school commencement speech, remember that not everyone in your class will be attending college. Don't joke about your education letting you avoid a "bad" profession; chances are good there's a parent who has that job out in the audience.=

Common Questions: Tips for Writing & Rehearsing a Speech

How do you start a speech for school?

Start by introducing yourself and thanking the audience. You can kick off the speech with a relevant “what if” question that gets the audience thinking and expand on it. Or try starting with a strong statement or quote related to your topic, then follow it up with an impactful question to answer in your speech. [14] X Research source

Where do I start when I'm writing a speech?

Start by sitting down and brainstorming to get your creative juices flowing. What is the focus of your speech? Who is your audience? Why is your speech important? Once you have some notes down, start refining your ideas until you get to one main point or theme that you’ll base your speech on. [15] X Research source

What parts should I include in a speech to make it the most effective?

Create a speech that has a clear introduction for your main point or thesis statement. Then, include and expand on 2-3 main points to make up the body of your speech. To conclude, summarize and restate your thesis to include your key points, and then make your closing statement. [16] X Research source

How do I get better at giving a speech I've written?

Read the speech out loud several times to get a feel for it. Record or take video of yourself giving the speech to find any weak spots and adjust anything that feels awkward or choppy. Ask friends or family to watch you rehearse and give you honest feedback. Then, just keep practicing until you've nailed it. [17] X Research source

16 Public Speaking Tips for Students

Arlin Cuncic, MA, is the author of The Anxiety Workbook and founder of the website About Social Anxiety. She has a Master's degree in clinical psychology.

Aron Janssen, MD is board certified in child, adolescent, and adult psychiatry and is the vice chair of child and adolescent psychiatry Northwestern University.

Public speaking tips for students aim to reduce anxiety that can interfere with giving presentations or speeches in class. These tips can also be helpful for those with social anxiety disorder (SAD)   who have difficulty speaking in front of a group or telling a story among friends.

Public Speaking Tips

If you have SAD and need to give a speech  in elementary school, high school, college, or university, it helps to be as prepared as possible . Beyond preparation, however, there are strategies that you can use to reduce anxiety and fight the urge to stay home with a fake illness.

Even great speakers practice their speeches beforehand. Practice out loud with a recording device or video camera and then watch yourself to see how you can improve. If you are feeling brave, practice in front of a friend or family member and ask for feedback.

• Talk about what you know : If possible, choose a topic for your speech or presentation that you know a lot about and love. Your passion for the topic will be felt by the audience, and you will feel less anxious knowing that you have a lot of experience to draw from when other students ask you questions.
• Concentrate on your message : When you focus on the task at hand, anxiety is less likely to get out of control. Concentrate on the main message of your speech or presentation and make it your goal to deliver that message to the other students in your class.
• Grab the audience's attention : Most of your fellow classmates will pay attention for at least the first 20 seconds; grab their attention during those early moments. Start with an interesting fact or a story that relates to your topic.
• Have one main message : Focus on one central theme and your classmates will learn more. Tie different parts of your talk to the main theme to support your overall message. Trying to cover too much ground can leave other students feeling overwhelmed.

Tell Stories

Stories catch the attention of other students and deliver a message in a more meaningful way than facts and figures. Whenever possible, use a story to illustrate a point in your talk.

Being prepared to speak in public can also be important if you have social anxiety disorder. Feeling confident and prepared to give your speech may help lessen your feelings of anxiety. Some of the things that you can do to prepare include:

• Visit the room : If you have access to the classroom where you will be speaking outside of class hours, take the time to visit in advance and get used to standing at the front of the room. Make arrangements for any audio-visual equipment and practice standing in the exact spot where you will deliver your speech.
• Rack up experience : Volunteer to speak in front of your class as often as possible. Be the first one to raise your hand when a question is asked. Your confidence will grow with every public speaking experience.
• Observe other speakers : Take the time to watch other speakers who are good at what they do. Practice imitating their style and confidence.
• Organize your talk : Every speech should have an introduction, a body, and a conclusion. Structure your talk so that the other students know what to expect.

Manage Your Anxiety

Taking steps to deal with your feelings of anxiety can also make public speaking easier. Some of the things that you can do:

• Tell someone about your anxiety : If you are speaking in front of a high school or college class, meet with your teacher or professor and describe your public speaking fears . If you're in elementary or high school, share your fears with your parents, a teacher, or a guidance counselor. Sometimes sharing how you feel can make it easier to overcome stage fright.
• Visualize confidence : Visualize yourself confidently delivering your speech. Imagine feeling free of anxiety and engaging the students in your class. Although this may seem like a stretch for you now, visualization is a powerful tool for changing the way that you feel. Elite athletes use this strategy to improve performance in competitions.
• Find a friendly face : If you are feeling anxious, find one of your friends in class (or someone who seems friendly) and imagine that you are speaking only to that person.

Maintain Perspective

Remember that other students are on your side. Think about a time when you have been an audience member and the student delivering the speech or presentation was noticeably nervous. Did you think less of that student? More likely, you felt sympathetic and wanted to make that person more comfortable by smiling or nodding.

Remember—other students generally want you to succeed and feel comfortable. If for some reason the audience is not on your side or you experience bullying or social exclusion, be sure to discuss this with a parent, teacher, or guidance counselor.

Be Confident

Sometimes just knowing what makes a good speech can help you feel more confident. Focus on some of the following elements and practice them before you have to speak in public.

• Develop your own style : In addition to imitating good speakers, work on developing your own personal style as a public speaker. Integrate your own personality into your speaking style and you will feel more comfortable in front of the class. Telling personal stories that tie into your theme are a great way to let other students get to know you better.
• Avoid filler words : Words such as "basically", "well", and "um" don't add anything to your speech. Practice being silent when you feel the urge to use one of these words.
• Vary your tone, volume, and speed : Interesting speakers vary the pitch (high versus low), volume (loud versus soft), and speed (fast versus slow) of their words. Doing so keeps your classmates interested and engaged in what you say.
• Make the audience laugh : Laughter is a great way to relax both you and the other students in your class, and telling jokes can be a great icebreaker at the beginning of a speech. Practice the timing and delivery of your jokes beforehand and ask a friend for feedback. Be sure that they are appropriate for your class before you begin.
• Smile : If all else fails, smile. Your fellow classmates will perceive you like a warm speaker and be more receptive to what you have to say.

Don't Apologize

If you make a mistake, don't offer apologies. Chances are that your classmates didn't notice anyway. Unless you need to correct a fact or figure, there is no point dwelling on errors that probably only you noticed.

If you make a mistake because your hands or shaking, or something similar, try to make light of the situation by saying something like, "I wasn't this nervous when I woke up this morning!" This can help to break the tension of the moment.

A Word From Verywell

It's natural to feel frightened the first time you have to speak in front of your class. However, if you fear continues, interferes with your daily life and keeps you awake at night, it may be helpful to see someone about your anxiety.

Try talking to a parent, teacher, or counselor about how you have been feeling. If that doesn't get you anywhere, ask to make an appointment with your doctor. Severe public speaking anxiety is a true disorder that can improve with treatment .

Writing a School Speech

Writing a school speech can be a challenge if your teacher assigns you a topic you despise or are completely oblivious to. But, not being able to compose an effective one is not a very good enough reason given the access to the internet and school libraries, or other sources you can refer to. To help you out with difficulties in composing one, refer to our tips below. You may also see the  award speech examples .

• Instead of thinking or complaining about how difficult your topic is, motivate yourself to learn about it . A topic which is foreign to you may sound extremely difficult already. The technique for instances such as this is to encourage yourself to learn about certain topics which you know nothing about. Your unwillingness to perform school duties because your teachers have not discussed anything about your topic be the reason why you fail to compose an effective school speech. It comes with the absolute necessity that you do extensive research for your assignments; thereby, increasing the degrees of your understanding of the concept of certain matters to suffice individual curiosity and get rid of ignorance.

• Make certain that your sources are reliable . It has become rampant in today’s age where the spread of fallacious news is forcibly imposed on people who buy any ideas. When doing your research, you have to make sure that the ideas you have gathered are factual. This is why there is a need for you to do an extensive research than just rely on one source. If ever you spot some points in your reference that is questionable to you, don’t hesitate to research more about that point. In the age of digital revolution, the main source of acquiring information is via the internet. There are blogs or articles that may present opinions and ideas rather smartly, even though the ideas being referred to are not accurate. You don’t want your speech to be an embodiment of misleading information. The purpose of your informative speech is to educate, so always take some time to think about the sources of your information before preaching your ideas to your audience.
• Organize your ideas well and deliver a good argument. The organization of thoughts and ideas is important for you not to create ambiguities. A well-organized idea paired with the perfect choice of words is what makes a speech effective. Also, you have to make sure that your ideas from factual sources are arranged perfectly to guide your audience to your main point. If you fail to arrange your ideas, there are instances where one of your ideas breeds to audience assumptions that contradict your other ideas.
• Start with something that stirs the audience’s interests, and end your school speech with a statement that leaves a lasting impact on the audience . Starting with a quote not common to all or a statement that speaks of the very core of your ideas is a good way to entice your listeners. In case your speech fails to do so, your audience will be stricken with boredom and would not bother giving your ideas and opinions the chance to be heard. Furthermore, once you are through with presenting your ideas, write a conclusion that persuades your audience to consider your perspective. This can be attained by writing a conclusion that declares an idea that makes them think rather than declare how your ideas are right and must be implemented. Ending your school speech with a question is a good way to make your audience think, and come up with ideas that even you know nothing about. You may also see the  presentation speech .

The high school experience: a personal reflection.

Filled with growth and life lessons, the high school experience has been a journey worth the climb.

Anna Waldron , Editor May 4, 2022

High school is arguably the most transformative time of a person’s life. My own experience has been filled with more memories, laughter, stress, and — most importantly, growth — than I ever could have anticipated when I began. 

The lessons I have learned about myself, about others, and about the world in the last four years have shaped who I am today, and that person is far from the naive 14-year-old girl who walked through those glass doors of La Salle nearly four years ago. I was oblivious to the overwhelming emotional distress that I would feel when I started high school. 

In some ways, it feels like an everyday battle. 

As a freshman, the struggle began with adjusting to what felt like a whole new world. I was desperately trying to make friends, considering I had only one. I never knew what it was like to feel alone in a school with so many people. I felt like I had to act a certain way or be a certain person in order to maintain a basic conversation with people in my classes or on my soccer team. 

Every day, my head was filled with an overwhelming concern about how I could manage to make myself look like someone with more friends than I actually had at the time. 

I remember constantly thinking, “I’ll start enjoying this at some point, right?” 

The truth is, I did. 

To anyone who is feeling the way I once felt, please know that those feelings do go away. By the end of my freshman year and into the next, I enjoyed myself. School wasn’t particularly challenging, and I was spending my weekends having fun with my friends and going to basketball games and sleepovers. I had finally created a routine and felt mostly content with my life, aside from daunting thoughts in my head telling me it was all a lie.

I think that’s something that all teenagers deal with. It comes with the age, the questions, “do my friends actually like me?” or “am I enough?” — “do people worry about me or have I tricked myself into thinking they do?” 

I continued to move throughout my sophomore year feeling a new level of comfort with my life. Then, the pandemic hit. 

The original two weeks of quarantine turned into two months, and then two years. The predictable high school experience I had become accustomed to was no longer my reality, and instead, high school turned into an atypical rollercoaster of isolation from all the essential parts of the experience. 

To say it was hard would be an understatement, but after the initial forced adjustment to a remote life, I was forced to be content without relying on others.

Without having to fear other people’s judgments of me or having to conceal myself in social situations to appear more “acceptable,” I gained independence and confidence within myself that I didn’t know existed.

Then finally — after over a year — the long-awaited return to school arrived. 

I rejoiced in my ability to thrive academically again and I was so relieved to feel like I was really learning. I reconnected with my friends, ate lunch outside, took finals, and then — after a blur of two months — the year ended. My junior year flew by like no other. 

When senior year rolled around, I felt out of place. I couldn’t imagine a world where I belonged to the oldest class at the school. In the beginning, it was odd getting used to, but after a few weeks, it was nothing but a thrill as I planned what the next weekend alongside my friends would hold. 

My friendships were flourishing and I was becoming closer and closer with people I had never really gotten to know. 

Unlike the three years prior, my senior year has felt like a stereotypical high school experience, and I could not be more grateful for it. 

I always thought of myself as someone who was above enjoying things like attending soccer games, getting ready for homecoming with my friends, singing karaoke in someone’s basement, or going to a trampoline park for an 18-year-old’s birthday party. 

The truth is, I’m not. 

I regret that I spent so long depriving myself of the things I love in order to fit a narrative that I created for myself. 

I love that I will graduate high school happier and more fulfilled than I ever felt during my other three years here. It feels like everything has finally come full circle, after all these years of feeling so alone. 

So yes, it was transformative. I am finally content with the person I have become and the life I have chosen to lead. I wouldn’t be the same without La Salle and I wouldn’t be the same without the people I’ve gotten to know here. 

I know that I will look back on my high school experience here, not feeling critical of the insecurities I have felt, but feeling grateful for the memories and lessons that came regardless of them.

Can We Write Your Speech?

Get your audience blown away with help from a professional speechwriter. Free proofreading and copy-editing included.

Read all my checks for writing subjects and after you have completed that task follow all secure education idea links to the online education lists I have shaped and modified in class education material:

More aggravated lists of themes and valuable information regarding different subjects for future generations education are below. As well as a summary of the implications and / or requirements of what you have found, and school speech topics you could analyze in class.

You can sort out any ideas you like to talk about in oral lessons, scan the possible suggestions and think about what your audience like to hear you talking about: cite short passages and quotation excerpts from well-known experts in the field of research, or refer to good knowledge illustrations and sustainable proof.

Learn to gather material from outside sources about your thread for grades 9 through 12 learning, and deliver your opinion strongly and concisely. Give plain reasons for something you believe. Foster support for your solution, theory or device.

This is principally beneficial for achieving higher education institute assertiveness when you are on stage and put two or more views together, and provide a reason for putting them together by logical reasoning. Another method is approaching the subject matter in both positive and negative lights.

Tracing how something has induced artificially from an earlier state to its current form could welcomed by higher pedagogic instructors.

Next tip: workout extensive information on indoor and outdoor recreation activities to tempt your public to explore other activities than dating, dancing and drinking in a local bar.

Sports is a candidate for finding senior graded school speech topics. E.g. sport as profession to earn a living. With a scientific twist you make it more sophisticated, and because you’re highly qualified and have an actively learning attitude you are able to get their thesis commitment.

Some moves that matter in lower classes are the so-called critize teaching skills, often described as asking and wondering through critical inquiry:

You can help your teacher and fill her or him with enthusiasm by going extracurricular in proposing a particular judgment on a certain top topicality and examen the validity of the arguments by criticizing. This has been in practice in the late seventies – when things went the old-fashioned and more severe way 🙂 – but this technique has made a terrific comeback and is now used in grades 5 through 8 homework assignments.

Many of my visitors look for sixth grade inspiration, or class 6 if you live in India, Bangladesh and Pakistan, Primary 5 or 6 in Singapore, and 6ГЁme in France for example. Anyway, in what country you are right now does not matter; all school speech topics are created for children in the range of eleven and twelve years old.

The same holds good for class conversations of (usually) thirteen to fourteen years old who try to cover explanations of various objects and their meaning in the accustomed world of the eight grade population.

Children speak the truth, is often said 🙂 And that saying is more than true. Give them something to chew on in public – from colouring plates to planting and caring for trees – and it is so easy, a younger persons can do it 🙂

More for girls and boys – although it depends on the specific age or progress of the pupils – can be found at this index number two. Help them to be able to get to know the material, and to make the first steps on the path of learning the rudimentary public speaking skills (that are valuable for their whole life).

I have shaped a list that also contains some reference information for nursery and primary and kindergarten material.

Ms. Rachel delivers emotional commencement speech at NYU's Steinhardt School

“Find your role to play, and show up,” she said.

Ms. Rachel captivated the crowd with her words as she delivered an emotional commencement speech at New York University's Steinhardt School.

The popular online children's educator, whose real name is Rachel Griffin Accurso, began her speech by saying how "incredibly honored" she was to be on the stage and thanking the faculty, staff and senior leadership at NYU.

During her speech, Ms. Rachel opened up about her experience with imposter syndrome when she was invited to be an early childhood expert at an event recently.

Who is TikTok's Ms. Rachel?

"I definitely have imposter syndrome," she shared. "I have it right now. I'm kind of freaking out. A lot of us have thoughts like that. You're not good enough; you should shrink and not take up space. … Our thoughts can tell us we're the opposite of who we are. Our thoughts lie."

She continued, "I used to wait for someone powerful to give me permission to use their power. Other people were the gatekeepers, the change makers. But the truth is, you don't need to wait for anyone else; find your role to play and show up. You are the one."

Her journey into making videos for kids began when she was looking on YouTube and streaming sites for a show that would help her son, who had a severe speech delay, with speech development.

"But I couldn't find anything like what I was imagining. I kept thinking someone should do a show with all the great speech development strategies and early intervention techniques. We were learning," she recalled.

With support from her husband, she launched her channel, which now has over 6 billion views on YouTube.

"A lot of us think we're not good enough. That we can't act until we hit some ideal level of knowledge. It's not true," she said.

Getting visibly emotional, she continued, "You don't need to wait for anyone else to show up. When you see a need, when you see an injustice, a way the world could be better, use the unique gifts and talents you have to serve the world. We don't know what will happen, but we guarantee nothing will change if we don't try."

Ms. Rachel said she continues to be inspired and motivated by what she hears from families about the challenges they are facing and their needs, noting that the families "have blessed me with a platform that I can now use to advocate."

"I've been advocating for children's rights, fighting for every child to have access to early childhood education, a safe place to live, the support they need to grow and thrive and for their families who care for them, paid family leave, and affordable child care," she said. "I don't feel qualified to do this work. But I also didn't feel qualified to make our show or make this speech, honestly. And here I am trying."

Concluding her message to the graduates, she said, "The one you are waiting for to change the world, the one with the power and the genius and the vision, it's you."

Benefits of Reading

Reading is a healthy habit that benefits both students and adults. Here, we discuss the importance of reading  to include it in our everyday routines:

• Increase Knowledge- Reading offers you information on new topics, helping you to expand your knowledge and broaden your understanding. It gives you new ideas and concepts and widens your perspective towards others.
• Cognitive Functioning- Reading helps you to strengthen your mental ability and increase your intellect. It keeps your brain active and delays cognitive decline as you age.
• Expands Vocabulary- Reading exposes you to new concepts and words, which helps to expand your vocabulary and improve your comprehension.
• Improve Communication skills- Learning new things helps you to expand your knowledge. A knowledgeable person shines with confidence which leads to good communication skills.
• Improve Concentration- Reading requires focus and concentration, and making it a habit might help an individual improve these skills.

Continuing the Journey: MSAF Student Trang Vo Shares Her Experience Participating in the Bryant Stibel Internship Program

Trang Vo's journey through the Bryant Stibel internship program highlights the power of immersive, experiential learning. Trang's story underscores the importance of integrating academic study with practical application, equipping aspiring finance professionals with the tools and insights needed to excel in a competitive marketplace. Join us as we delve into Trang's experiences and explore how the Bryant Stibel internship program has impacted her career trajectory in finance.

Read Trang’s Interview:

1. how did your participation in the bryant stibel internship program enhance your understanding of investment strategy.

Participating in the Bryant Stibel internship program at Pepperdine Graziadio Business School significantly enhanced my understanding of real-world investment strategy, particularly in Private Equity and Venture Capital. Despite majoring in finance during my undergraduate studies, my familiarity with alternative investments like Private Equity and Venture Capital was limited to fundamental concepts. However, during the program, I gained a comprehensive understanding of these fields through detailed instruction. Professors Davide and Clemens' teachings went beyond theory; we discussed recent events and delved into real-world examples of Private Equity, Venture Capital deals, commodities, and derivatives contracts. Additionally, we were given the chance to put our learning into practice by screening, researching, and presenting our investment idea to the Bryant Stibel firm. This experience not only expanded my knowledge base but also honed my skills in navigating the investment landscapes, equipping me with the confidence to excel in real-world investment.

2. Can you describe a specific project or task that you worked on during the project that contributed to your learning experience?

One project that significantly enriched my learning experience in investment strategy during the internship was the Crystal Capital Partner Article assignment. We were tasked with creating an engaging article suitable for publication on Crystal Capital Partner's website. This opportunity allowed me to delve into a relatively untapped industry: the commercial aerospace industry.

Researching and writing the article afforded invaluable insights into potential investment trends and opportunities that could shape the industry's future. It broadened my understanding of the dynamics within the aerospace sector and helped me design my long-term investment strategies spanning the next 10 to 20 years.

Analyzing the factors influencing the commercial aerospace industry, such as technological advancements and government & private funding helped me identify potential trillion-dollar industry and investment prospects. Since the commercial aerospace industry is relatively new, it was challenging to find data and information from trusted sources. Therefore, crafting the article required thorough research, data analysis, data gathering, and critical thinking skills, all of which are essential and valuable skills I need to make decisions in investment strategy.

3. In what ways did the hands-on experience in the internship program differ from theoretical learning in the classroom, and how did this difference benefit your educational journey?

There's this saying in Vietnamese that sums up my internship experience: "It's easier said than done." While textbooks, class discussions, and lectures provided a foundation, it was the practical application that truly lighted up the complexities of real-world scenarios.

Take the Discounted Cash Flow model as an example, a concept I grasped theoretically in class. Implementing it during the final project was challenging and time-consuming. It wasn't just about crunching numbers; I had to make many assumptions and justify every step. And when we looked at different industries for investment opportunities, like pharmaceuticals with companies like Amphastar, it wasn't just about finances. We had to dive into their whole history, such as pipeline history, pipeline products, patents, and supply chains, to get the full picture.

Moreover, the internship exposed me to the reality of decision-making. In the classroom, decisions often appear straightforward, but in practice, they're imbued with risks and considerations. For instance, selecting project topics took my team weeks of back-and-forth, weighing all the options and considering every angle.

4. What skills or knowledge did you gain that you believe will be most valuable as you transition into the real world of investment and finance? 

During my internship, I learned to think innovatively and outside conventional bounds, a skill that is essential for navigating the world of investment and finance. Professors Davide and Clemens created an environment where challenging oneself and exploring unique ideas were encouraged. For example, during our final presentation project, we were prompted to choose an investment opportunity that was not only intriguing but also niche, something that had never been heard of before. My teammate Stanley and I dedicated two weeks to brainstorming and refining our investment ideas, underscoring the significance of creativity. 

Moreover, my internship experience deepened my appreciation for teamwork. For tasks like DCF valuation, we always consider the worst-case scenarios. The internship class also instilled in me a crucial lesson about readiness for unexpected worst-case scenarios. As Professor Clemens stated, "It could happen anytime." I realized the importance of not solely relying on team members, as circumstances are subject to change. This realization prompted me to anticipate and adapt to unforeseen challenges, ensuring that I am always ready to navigate obstacles independently if required.

5. How did interactions with professionals and mentors within the program shape your perspective on the industry and prepare you for future career opportunities in investment strategy? 

One of the key lessons I learned from Professor Clemens and Davide was the importance of discipline in trading strategy. Their advice resonated beyond trading, emphasizing the significance of focus and dedication in all aspects of life. I appreciate the professors' meticulous planning and the number of guest speakers they arranged for each class session. The array of guest speakers, ranging from industry experts in real estate, venture capital, and biotech, to film, shared invaluable experiences and perspectives that broadened my understanding of the investment world. 

In particular, guest speaker Lance Helfert, a Pepperdine alumnus, left a lasting impact with his inspiring journey. His fund, "15 Equity," managing a select portfolio of 15 stocks, showed the power of simplicity and focus in achieving S&P500-beating results. Additionally, his story of acquiring, renovating, and managing hotels gave me insights and ideas for potential real estate investment in the future. 

Overall, the mentorship and interactions within the Bryant Stibel internship program not only deepened my understanding of investment and finance but also instilled in me a sense of discipline, focus, and inspiration that will shape my future career path in the investment industry.

Speech on School Farewell

School farewell events stir a whirlwind of emotions. They signify the end of a memorable journey, yet herald the start of a new adventure.

It’s a bittersweet occasion, filled with joy, sadness, and anticipation. You share laughter, tears, and hopes with friends, marking a pivotal moment in your life.

1-minute Speech on School Farewell

Respected Principal, Vice Principal, Teachers, and my dear friends, we have gathered here today to bid farewell to the graduating students of our beloved school. It’s an honor and a matter of great pride to be standing here representing all of you on this nostalgic occasion.

The word ‘Farewell’ carries mixed emotions. It is a blend of sadness for saying goodbye and excitement for embracing new beginnings. Today, we are here to express our deepest gratitude and respect to our Alma Mater, which has nurtured us, moulded us, and turned us into individuals who are ready to face the challenges of the world.

Our school has not just been a place of education but a home. A home where we learned the essence of friendship, leadership, and teamwork. It’s here we understood the importance of discipline, respect, and humility. It’s not just the textbooks, but the life lessons we learned in these corridors will forever be treasured.

At this juncture, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to our respected Principal and teachers who relentlessly worked to bring out the best in us. Your guidance and encouragement have been the driving force that helped us overcome our fears and achieve our goals. You have been more than teachers, you have been our mentors.

Dear friends, as we walk out of the gates of our school, let us carry the teachings and the ever glowing spirit of our school in our hearts. May every one of us become a beacon of light, spreading knowledge and love wherever we go. Let us remember that the end of school is not the end of learning but the beginning of our journey in the wider world.

Thank you, everyone, for these wonderful years. Here’s bidding you all a fond farewell. Let’s keep the flag of our school flying high. Good luck and God bless!

2-minute Speech on School Farewell

Dear respected teachers, honorable principal, and dear friends, I stand here today with mixed emotions and a heavy heart to bid you all farewell. School, a place that has nurtured us for years, shaped our personalities and molded our characters, is now a memory that we will cherish forever.

School is not just a building made of bricks and concrete, it is a temple of knowledge where we learn to live. Teachers are not just individuals who teach lessons, they are our guiding lights who show us the right path and lead us towards a successful life. Friends are not just classmates, they are our extended family with whom we have created countless memories.

We all have spent an incredible journey of learning, growth, and development in this school. The journey was not just about academic studies, it was more about understanding life, and preparing ourselves for the future. We have learned to be disciplined, to be punctual, to be responsible, and most importantly to be kind and compassionate towards others. This school has taught us the value of hard work, honesty, and integrity which will guide us throughout our life.

Our teachers have always been our pillars of strength. They guided us when we were lost, they encouraged us when we were down, and they celebrated our success. They have not just taught us subjects, they have taught us life’s lessons. I would like to express my heartful gratitude to all our teachers for their relentless efforts and unconditional love.

I would also like to express my gratitude to our Principal who has always been a beacon of guidance. His/Her visionary leadership and unwavering support have played an instrumental role in our academic journey. Our principal’s belief in us has motivated us to strive for excellence and has instilled in us the confidence to face any challenge in life.

Friends, let us not forget that school is just the beginning of our life journey. The world out there is full of opportunities and challenges. Let us promise ourselves that we will always uphold the values and principles that we have learned in this school. Let us remember that success is not just about achieving our goals, it is also about being a good human being.

As we bid adieu to our beloved school, let us remember the good times, the laughter, the victories, the lessons, and the friendships that we have formed. Let us cherish these memories and let them be our guiding force in the journey of life.

In conclusion, I would like to say that though we are saying goodbye today, our hearts will always be connected to this school. Whatever we become in life, we will always be proud to say that we are the alumni of this prestigious institution.

Thank you everyone once again for being a significant part of our lives. Thank you for the memories, the lessons, and the love. May we all meet again in this journey of life.

Thank you and farewell.

How to enhance reading instruction: a guide to Immersive Reader for educators

• Content Type
• Immersive reader

Immersive Reader is a free, easy-to-use tool that that’s designed to improve reading comprehension and fluency for students of all abilities. Packed with features that can read aloud or translate on-screen text, Immersive Reader incorporates research principles that increase access for all students. Best of all, Immersive Reader is available for free in popular classroom applications like the Edge browser, Teams for Education, Flip, Minecraft, and Microsoft 365 products like Word. That means your students have reading support while they are working on a project, collaborating with classmates, or researching on the internet.

Whether a student needs Immersive Reader to read at a slower pace or only provide picture clues without narration, you can customize the learning experience and provide specific accommodations for your students. The features help students like Karrick Johnson overcome dyslexia and become confident, self-directed readers in the classroom.

Learn how to use Immersive Reader to address a variety of reading activities in your classroom.

Launch Immersive Reader whenever or wherever reading support is needed

Immersive Reader delivers built-in, non-stigmatizing help whenever students encounter difficult reading passages–like when they are asked to read and understand information in a Word document. Get started by opening Word for the web in the Microsoft Edge browser or looking for the Immersive Reader icon in another Microsoft 365 application.

Tip: If students can’t see the Immersive Reader button in the ribbon, maximize the window so that it is full screen. Select the arrow next to Immersive Reader to return to the word processor when students finish.

Adjust read aloud speech with Voice Settings

Immersive Reader reads aloud on-screen text while highlighting words, and it includes options like rate-of-speech for adjusting how passages are spoken.

• Voice Settings:  Customize how Immersive Reader reads aloud passages
• Voice Speed: Increase or decrease the rate of speech
• Voice Selection: Choose the gender of the voice
• Play: Start read aloud
• Pause: Stop read aloud

Tip: Students with audio processing delays can reduce the voice speed to better understand spoken words. Others might benefit from listening to long passages at faster rates to quickly consume more content. If the voice is too fast or slow, students can return to Voice Settings and make further adjustments to completely control their reading experience.

Make on-screen text more accessible with Text Preferences

Immersive Reader allows students to change how text appears on the screen during independent reading activities. Options like line length and font spacing improve reading speed for struggling readers or those with learning disabilities like dyslexia.

• Text Preferences: Customize how Immersive Reader displays text on-screen
• Text Size: Increase or decrease character size and control line length
• Increase Spacing: Add padding between lines
• Font: Choose a font
• Themes: Change the background and font color

Tip: Adjusting options in Text Preferences causes the passage to immediately change. This helps students set up Immersive Reader so that it best displays text based on their own reading needs and improves recognition.

Use Grammar Options to integrate literacy activities into any reading passage

Immersive Reader breaks words into syllables and identifies parts of speech. Both features complement effective literacy instruction and support student reading development.

• Grammar Options: Customize on-screen text with grammatical conventions
• Syllables: Break words into syllables
• Parts of Speech: Identify and color-code nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs

Tip: Select and change the color drop-down menu to match the part of speech to an English textbook. When the color of the parts of speech in Immersive Reader corresponds to other sources, students are better able to form connections between grammatical concepts and in-class activities.

Provide individualized, just-in-time reading assistance with Reading Preferences

Immersive Reader includes line focus options, picture clues, and translation services when students need reading accommodations to understand on-screen text.

• Reading Preferences : Add tools that improve reading comprehension
• Line Focus: Show one, two, or three lines of text and mask other words
• Picture Dictionary: Show a picture and provide the pronunciation of selected words
• Translate: Choose from one of over 70 languages to translate on-screen text
• Translate (By word): Include language translation and pronunciation when using the Picture Dictionary
• Translate (Document): Convert all the on-screen text into another language
• Reading Coach: Assess fluency by recording and analyzing students as they read on-screen text

Tip: Provide varying levels of support for non-native English learners by using Document (more assistance) or by word (less assistance). Show students how Immersive Reader speaks on-screen text in another language when either option is chosen. Families can also use Immersive Reader to translate English into their preferred language provided they have a Microsoft 365 account.

Assess fluency and practice challenging words with Reading Coach

Reading Coach in Immersive Reader is a new feature that listens while a student reads aloud and automatically provides a fluency report and word identification activities.

TIP:  Save time conducting assessments by using a Word document with a standard passage that all students read using Reading Coach in Immersive Reader. Encourage students to use a headset or find a quiet spot when recording for more accurate analysis. Ask students to complete practice activities and then re-record to assess growth in word identification. Learn more about using Reading Coach in Immersive Reader !
