You are going to tell the story that you
wrote about. You are going to deliver your speech to small groups. Your presentation must be approximately 5 minutes long.

Begin with a hook. A good hook will make any presentation better. Carefully plan the first thing you are going to say. Asking your audience one or more engaging questions is an easy and effective way to make them feel involved in and curious about your speech.

In persuasive speaking, the introduction is very important. It is essential that you make the audience feel like you are their ally, or on their side. Although your next presentation is not persuasive in nature, we’re going to practice opening with a strong introduction. This is different from the hook! For this presentation, after the hook, build the common ground that you share with your audience.
-You may have had similar experiences, 
-you may have similar values that relate to the topic of your presentation.
This should take about one minute.
What part of your story could everyone relate to?
What element of your personal story reflects a universal human
experience?

Your preview must be clear and simple. In one or two sentences, tell the audience what the main points, or sections, of your presentation are about. For this kind of presentation, you probably have 1, 2 or 3 main points.

For example, your first main point might be about the person you persuaded, or what you were doing at the time. Your second main point might be your story, the details of the experience of being persuaded. Your last point might be how you felt, or what happened as a result.]]> 2018-08-15 04:12:41 UTC https://padlet.com/buttsusan/k4u30j1yumo8/wish/273182242 buttsusan https://padlet.com/buttsusan/k4u30j1yumo8/wish/273186747

A place where filled with many crazy people.
People believe that they can win money there,
But actually they lose again and again.

My friend Jason, a gambling lover. He go to casino almost everyday. Sometimes we go together to spend time. But I have never won.
So I don’t think I can win money there. But my friend Jason believes that he can win his money back,this thinking is very dangerous.

Once Jason asked me for go to casino with him.
I don’t want to go there anymore, so I said “No, I always lose, I don’t want to go there again.”, but Jason tried to convince me. He said “come on, you might win this time.”. It’s so difficult to refuse other people for me, so I said “ Alright,last time just for fun.”.

Surely, we lost again, and I made up my mind to don’t go to casino anymore.

Say “ Yes.” not always means positive. Sometime    
I need to say no to protect myself, l learned from this experience. Next time if someone tries to convince me, I’ll decide after much consideration.]]> 2018-08-19 13:56:50 UTC https://padlet.com/buttsusan/k4u30j1yumo8/wish/273907895 buttsusan https://padlet.com/buttsusan/k4u30j1yumo8/wish/274183583 Topic: prostitution should be legal
