A stump speech is a political speech used during campaigns, primarily known for deciminating the party’s political platform.

I challenged myself to work on my nerves. Second, I challenged myself to work on not rushing through my speech. I usually like to talk fast to get it done with. Last, I challenged myself to make the time requirements. I think I addressed these pretty well. I didn't rush through my speech and I made my time requirements. The strongest element in my body was my facts. At the 1:50 mark I had really good facts about Blarney Castle. I think I did a good job describing it and how to kiss the stone. My
Self and Peer Evaluation Self Evaluation: My speech on Jumbo the elephant was decently presented overall but did contain several mistakes. The opening was meant to be intriguing and emotional to catch the audience. I failed at keeping a slow pace and adding dramatic pauses due to nerves and fear of going over the time limit given. I attempted eye contact with the audience through out and managed it better than I have in the past. I tried my best with giving some body language but definitely needed

It also means knowing the word’s role(s) in different contexts, its spelling, how it sounds, its other meanings, it’s part of speech, and so on (Juel & Deffes, 2004). Stahl (2003) makes the distinction between the dictionary definition of a word (definitional knowledge), and the way a word’s meaning adapts to different contexts.

within the education system, like the usual “show and tell” type of speech or presentation in the United States. I attended elementary school in Mexico, where this type of activity was very common for history and natural science classes. Not sure if it still continues to this day. I would have to say, it was an informative type of speech, because I would present information about the chosen subject to classmates. An Informative Speech is to inform an audience, to present the information in a clear
The presentations of the different areas of biology and sciences were presented in an informative and organized fashion; however, the overall presentations felt a little rushed between all of the presenters and the information that was conveyed throughout their presentations.
