4. Warm Up Using the questions below, interview a partner
Where is your family from?
Do you have any animals?
Where do you want to go to college?
What are your interests outside of school?
Using their answers on a notecard, compile a logical outline for how you would use this information to introduce your partner to an audience
Note: you may need to ask follow-up questions of your partner to get enough interesting or coherent information!

5. Extemporaneous Speaking
Extemporaneous speaking is the art of using new information to present ideas to an audience WITHOUT practice or prior research
Form groups of 4 and make sure you have laptops.
Your assignment is in Canvas under the title “Introduction to Anglo-Saxons.”

6. Extemp cont.
You will have 30 minutes to research your topic and present a 60 second speech to your group
Your speech must include:
A Thesis
3 supporting points or ideas
Remember! A Thesis should answer an essential question for your audience. For example, a short informational speech on Anglo-Saxon culture might answer the question “How was this culture unique?” or “What were the most impactful cultural norms?”

7. Closure
On your notecard (from the Warm-up), use the back side to identify:
Which member of your group gave the best informational speech?
What made that speech effective?
