This is a wonderful event for beginning speakers. A
good four-minute speech can be about five hundred words long, and even a
beginning student, no matter what grade level, can find enough information
to fill that requirement without suffering from sleepless nights or "brain
cramps" A person can cover quite a bit of territory in the time
allowed and can survive in spite of fears that (1) the brain will be stuck
in neutral, (2) I'll DIE with all of those people looking at me, (3)
I'll sound stupid, and/or (4) why did I let THEM talk me in to
this. The real problem is to deal with a significant issue in a sincere, thoughtful, complete way in the time allowed.
