Level 1 Demonstration speech
Showing your audience how to do a practical skill while explaining the task is a very typical scenario you will find yourself doing outside of school. It has also helped a lot of past students be successful in this achievement standard.
What to do:
1. Choose a practical skill you already know something about - eg how to maintain and carry out basic checks on a mountain bike; or how to prepare and paint a wooden fence
2. Break the topic into 3-4 main parts eg first aid - blood, burns and breathing (not)!
3. Further divide each of those main parts into key details and supporting information. This is where you explain WHY you do it the way you are explaining to. Giving these reasons is a way of developing your explanation. See more notes on this below.
4. Research background information that you can insert at points during your speech that will give it an overall context eg cooking show hosts might tell the audience where a spice they are using came from; or the history behind a sport and how it began.
4. Write on your plan, next to the key words, the important demonstration actions you will make eg use tyre levers to remove tyre;or shoot at goal
5. Practise, practise, practise.
