Now let’s prepare to share our memoirs. DO speak clearly (enunciate). DO project your voice so that everyone can hear. DO vary your pace and tone to complement your message. DO make eye contact with your audience.

Words to Image We have written journal responses to pictures, but now we want to take our words and turn them into images. Create a 3-5 frame full-color comic strip that tells the story of your anecdote. Include details of the setting and characters, and depict the main events of your plot. Use word bubbles for dialogue. Turn these in Wednesday.
