Longer transactional writing: speech

Notes, activity & rubric on writing a speech.

You can print and copy the notes for learners to paste into their books. Learners can complete the activity individually and use the rubric to assess each other’s work.

The notes contain the following:

• Function

• Format

• Structure & style

• Register

These notes will assist you, as the teacher, to explain the details of writing a speech, which will enable learners to write more effectively. The activity, combined with the rubric, will enable learners to reflect on their creative writing attempts.

The notes and memo are in PDF and Word format so it can be edited if necessary.
