i am a apathetic person, i dont emotionally react to media, this brought me to tears, it resonated with me so well, and i am going to show this to my debate team, thank you so very much for the great example, you deserved the win
For anyone that is listening please answer! I am in speech and im in poetry, my topic is school shootings and I would like three poems that Are about chilhood, safety, and the school shooting itself. Please help me find a way to make people feel the way Isabella Royer made me feel
if they are personal poems, definitely include your own feelings. learn how to use your voice to mimic emotion consistently, and learning how to fake some tears can go a long way. like sage said appeal to emotion is great but always remember, how you say things can be CRAZILY more impactful than what you say (although you should be writing well for poetry) edit: also if you get the chance do literature or action studies on speeches like this one (and ones from your event) -- talk to varsity from your school or in your league, talk to coaches, and most of all, have fun with it.
Wow, she gave me chills. She was so RAW and REAL. I really hope this goes viral. Coby Evers, (my 1st cousin) in his late 20’s, this was his 3rd year as a teacher and the CHS debate coach and this award is so deserved!! Go CHS!!
I was there for her HI at plano senior high school and met her again at the central high school tournament. Her performances are always great and this was a well deserved award !! Congratulations isabella!! 🎉🎊🥳
