Comparison of Extemporaneous Speaking and Manuscript Style Speaking

The child I will be observing is Miss S, and her age is 5 years old. I will be observing Miss S in the Language Development which pertains to the Oral Language. I found out from the mother Mrs. K that Miss S. has a stuttering problem when she gets excited. Miss S gets embarrassed most of the time she does it. Mrs. K her mother states that she has to stop Miss. S and tell her to slow down and take her time. Miss S when she takes her time she can talk without the stuttering but she uses 2 word sentences because she is afraid to talk and people make fun of her. The mom says the best place to observe Miss S is here at head start in the classroom, because she fills more comfortable around her teacher and her peers. Miss K the mom states that she

Language is a major part of everyone’s life. Every country or even a community have their own language or a way of speaking, and these are the things that differentiate people from one another. Jamila Lyiscott speech, “3 Ways of Speaking English” and Suzanne Talhouk speech, “Don’t Kill Your Language” on TED talks, addresses different issues related with language and the way of speaking a particular language. Both of the speeches effectively use rhetorical elements or devices. Both of these people are well-known speakers, so they have some credibility even before they begin speaking. When they do start their speeches, both effectively employ emotional appeal, facts and logic to convey their intended message to the audience.

The speech therapy session that I observed was in the Healthstar Pediatric Rehab and Home Health, was on July 15th, 2015 and the name of the speech therapist was Audrey and the child who was eleven years old and his name was Brett. The type of speech impairment is non-verbal, the child can only say “mom”. The focus of the therapy session were answering yes/no questions and reviewing his words with an electronic device for example, his name, his age, his words, for example, transportation. He was reviewing the word “boat, helicopter, fire truck, motorcycle, car, bus, dump truck”. The therapist was showing him the colorful big card with the pictures on it and she was sorting the matching cards, showing him the card at one time with one image

There are 2 types of communication that will be discussed below, which are verbal communication and written communication

There is no question that after giving about four speeches, I have become a much better overall public speaker. In the beginning of the semester, I would tend to get nervous during some of my speeches and consequently the delivery of my speech would be greatly affected. If I had made a mistake, my level of nervousness would drastically increase and I wouldn’t know how to correct it. Although today I have improved on these aspects. Normally in order to control my nerves I try to think as positively as possible. This is critical because when I start to think even a little bit negatively then I severely hurt my chances of giving a good speech. Instead today, my main priority is to stay very confident and tell myself that I’m going to perform fine.

The writing process is something that you figure out yourself as you go through school. I personally think that is why they make us take English for so many years. Through the years, I found that some teachers forced you to write certain ways. I believe that

In the novel Speak, the author uses the protagonist, Melinda, to teach the reader the importance of verbal expression. Melinda refuses to speak up about an event that occurred in her life; therefore her classmates cannot show empathy towards her. Melinda never spoke up about why she did what she had done during an event in her life, so people judge and bully Melinda for her decisions. Melinda’s silence slowly erodes her self esteem and leaves her alone to handle her depressive behavior and decisions.

The most difficult aspect of testifying is having stage fright. Some officers and or people are not comfortable with speaking out loud and clear for all to hear in a public courtroom setting. Not only must the person testifying have to go through a direct examination but also a cross examination where it is intended to destroy the person's credibility.

Depending on the words you choose for a speech it can change the perspective of the audience. Make sure you choose wisely. You never know what you may accidently create it could be war or peace. You can still speak your mind but, you need to be careful how you present it. If there was a roomful of Catholic people you would not go into the room and mention how you hate God and that he or she is the worst thing to believe in. You should stick appropriate material for speech for the audience. You do not have to believe in God to present a speech to a group of Christians. It is a powerful statement when the book refers to “that all the threads of the tapestry are equal no matter what their color.” Page 37 The Public Speaking Playbook By Gamble.

Writing has the power to solidify ideas, for better or for worse. Putting things on paper makes it much clearer than anything you keep in your head. For example, when Skeeter Phelan stumbles upon a book describing all the Jim Crow laws of the South, they suddenly become much more profound—much more real. Skeeter had been exposed to these ideas for her entire life (“We all know about these laws”), but this was “the first time (she’s) seen them written down”.By writing them down, the rules became more powerful and more like actual laws rather than something that can be

The third chapter of a Pocket Guide to Public Speaking is about anxiety in relations to

There are differences and similarities when comparing speech to writing. What is the correct way to write? What is the correct way to speak? There are varying ways on how to do both these things. The vast number of languages, accents and dialects are astounding. In the United States, one can go to different parts of the county and hear many other languages used or incorporated into everyday use. When one speaks to their family, do they not speak differently than when surrounded by personalities in Academia? The same goes for writing. Doesn't one write differently in lets say, a diary then when he or she writes a Thesis Paper? Comparing the work of Amy Tan and Primo Levi provides a greater understanding of what’s at stake when we speak as opposed to when we write.

I say that because when it comes right down to it, voice is how we recognize the writer on the page. Indeed, when we refer to a poet or the orator in a poem, we refer to the “speaker.” The speaker uses their voice to implore the reader/audience to listen. Interesting too is the idea that the reader is an audience as in, “Who is your audience in this rhetorical situation?” So the terms of writing are interchangeable, even synonymous with, speech. How often do we as writers think about this?

Narration is similar to a sequenced list, but it is written in paragraph form. The narration paper is generally short. Narration is well suited to history writing.

With mobile phones where the small screen technology is so constraining, texting and tweeting plays a significant role in how we conduct our daily communication. David Crystal wrote an article titled “Texting”, and believes the younger generation is introducing a new phase of texting where words are usually represented with acronyms (241). Crystal called this abbreviated text exchange a “textspeak” (243). Kris Axtman is also a prominent author who wrote an article, “R U Online? The Evolving Lexicon of Wired Teens” (247). His article focuses on teenagers and their dependency on the online technology. Axtman observes that teenagers develop a whole range of abbreviations while exchanging
