1. I think he was a good speaker because ham sandwiched great and used good gestures.
2. Some of his good characteristics include the way he got the crowd into it by asking them questions and the way he used his voice. I couldn't really find any bad characteristics.
3. He changed his for the different points he made, when he was making a statement he made it loud and demanding, but when he was talking about the other kids, he seemed to make it like a touching voice.
4. His gestures went with the tone of his voice, making them more exciting when he got louder and using his hands to pick out certain groups in the crowd.
5. He was a great person to pick for the keynote speaker because he is an intention grabber. He was a fifth grader that went to a surrounding school that could speak with the best of them.
6. He wanted the teachers to believe in the kids and help them get to their goals. Yes it was important because the kids need to reach their goals.
7. I think they believed him. It definitely inspired me so I can imagine how it would feel to be a teacher for him and his classmates.
What did you think of his message? If you were a teacher, would it have inspired you?
I thought his message was great. I like how he stated that the teachers have the most important jobs there. Their work decides on how the kids will grow up and be later in life. If the teachers do a good job and the kids believe in them, they will be successful later on. I like how he made the point on how important the teachers are, whether they are teaching or just giving kids some love, because now it seems that teachers do not get the respect they need. If I was a teacher it would have inspired me. It would make me feel like I needed to work harder for the kids and help them reach their goals so they can be successful.
