This I Believe: Collaborative Introductory Message

When we began writing our “This I Believe” speeches, I hoped my students would simply engage in their writing of speeches in order to consider their larger audience in relation to delivery and content. Yet, the newer technologies we worked with helped us convey voice in our own unique way. We learned to emphasize words to express a particular tone that would compliment our message. This was even present in our class’s collaborative introductory message, in which we each shared one line about what we believe. These beliefs offer a tiny glimpse of my classroom.
