Hi guys,

today was dedicated to building the outline of your speech. You could take Eva Longoria's speech as an example if you wanted to. Here it is again:

- Intro : Background

         1- Family

         2- Education

         3- Work

         4- Success

- DVPT: ternary and binary rhythm

         1- The American Dream (opportunity, hard work, success / optimistic, ambitious, hard-working

         2- Taxes and the economy (affordable, cut taxes, small businesses / dry cleaner, health

clinic, facebook competitor / raise tax, tax break / Wendy's, movie sets).

         3- The “whole” program: jobs, education, health reform, Dream Act, equal pay

- CCL: the American Dream

         1- opportunity and prosperity

         2- Amanda's story and the 13-year-old girl dreaming to become President

         3- Hispanic community: “Si se puede!” ( = yes, we can!)

I also gave you the assessment worksheet that we analysed together to see what you had to do. You can download it here again:
