-We have taken a quick look at the history of Human rights and Martin Luther King jr in particular. We have then taken a closer look at his famous speech "I have a dream"
Next, you have written your own speech, inspired by Martin Luther King Jr.
Now it's time to let a classmate take a look at your speech and give you feedback while you do the same for him or her.
Next week it's time for you to present your speech!
This whole concept is borrowed by Sara Bruun
and you find the original here.
1. First have a look at the film about the magic of three.

3. Martin Luther King - I have a dream
Look at and listen to the Martin Luther King speech again. Use text below and try to identify:
: -Alliteration (Hard word - you find help here and some examples here)
- Facts
- Opinions
- Rhethorical questions (examples here, repetition
- Emotional language

Work together and show me the result.
You find the whole speech here.
The short version from the book is here
4. Write your own speech (v.5,6)
This is what I will take a closer look at. The way you write and speak and what strategies you use while doing it are important. Do you use a varied language? What kind of vocabulary do you use? Do you follow the instructions from A FOREST?
Here is another video to help you remember

You write the speech on your own.
Now use the techniques you have learnt and write your own speech. If you want you can use the text below to help you, but you don't have to. Feel free to write your own "I have dream" speech as long as you use the techniques.
You find example speech topics in the links below and here is some help
If you want to work with the whole process
Write in Google Drive and share it with me: anjsan1015@edu.lerum.se

5. Checklist
When you have finished writing - give the speech to a friend. I want the friend to use the model A FOREST as a checklist. Have you followed the instructions? I also want your friend to take a look at your language. Is there anything that needs to be improved?
6. The presentation
You can choose if you want to present your speech in front of the whole class or if you want a friend to film your speech and show it instead. It is up to you. Please let me know in advance.
It is ok to use the iPad or your smartphone with iMovie if you want to spice up your speech!
