When we talked in class, the clever cookies found these points memorable:
From the first speech: interesting voice, change of volume, movement, he memorised it, it had a strong message, some funny bits, he had a reference to where his information came from, and he numbered his important points.
From the second speech: She used short points, not long sentences, interesting expression in her voice, examples, stories to support her points, hand movements, a strong message to her speech, some funny bits, pauses between her ideas.
From the third speech: She had strong serious points, she talked about the future, she was honest, she wanted people to feel sad so they would want to help, quick looks at her writing, eye contact.
