Speech Comm

201--2nd period

Commencement speeches. You've done 100 words. Barbossa, brilliant. Ok, so now let's put that aside and decide on the message. You have your details, but what do you want your audience to know?

301--3rd period

It's time to get really interpersonal. I want you to go out this weekend, yes, I realize it's a holiday, and I want you to talk to someone. Write me a report of your conversation of the communication process. You've done this before, but now you know more. Questions?

"Well it's not the existance of aliens," she laughed. "But seriously? I'm not sure. This whole place is such a mass of unbelievable surprises...I never thought I'd call a vampire or a demon a friend, never thtought I'd have to fend off a muppet chicken, or wind up sleeping through a snow monster attack. There's a lot to choose from."

"Oh, yeah. I wish they'd told me that. How are you going to get them to do that? Specific examples?"

Isabel thought back to the welcome party the day she arrived. "Having Lockheed greet them would probably be a start. Nothing says different like a small purple dragon."

"That's the truth," she said, nodding in agreement. "Work from there. Ok?"
