OOO Quotes: “Respect the child. Be not too much his parent. Trespass not on his solitude.” Emerson “Politeness is the art of choosing among your thoughts.” Anne-Louise Germaine Necker, Barness de Stael-Holstein “The unexamined life is not worth living.” Socrates *** Argument and Analysis: Very passionate speech re: Emerson quote! That yes, children’s ideas are fresh and creative and often can be better than the ideas of adults. You argue that children are creative thinkers. I absolutely agree. Good point on the Necker speech that polite speech results in others thinking good things about us. Polite speech is not just a proper thing to do for others, it reflects on who we are as well. Examples: Great examples through out.Delivery: Your voice is lovely — like the playing of a violin — and your connection with your audience is wonderful. General Feedback: Really big ideas expressed passionately! Speaker Points: 100
