please follow the instruction and rubric each one.
1. Task: Draft the Presentation Script
Your task is to draft your oral presentation. Please read the instructions carefully.
Write a 400-500-word script that explains an important, life-changing event in your life. ( script will not use when we speak in the video.
Use the following questions to guide your writing:
Which event stands out the most in your mind?
Are there people from this event that have impacted you?
What makes this event transformative?
What, where, when, who, and why?
Why is this event important and how did it shape you?
Use the essay structure to organize the points. You should have
a hook or attention-grabbing beginning;
a clear narrative structure that connects the evidence and examples;
details and examples that explain or support your main idea; and
a strong conclusion.
Tips on Structure
Craft a title that conveys your main message or thesis.
Put the argument up front: the title and opening paragraphs typically state the argument or main idea.
Use short paragraphs, not the lengthy paragraphs often used in academic and college writing.
Tips on Voice and Tone
You can use the pronoun ?I? in personal writing and to connect with the audience.
Script your draft in your own voice. How would you explain the idea to a friend?
Feel free to use expressive language, such as irony and figures of speech.
Be specific: use concrete language and vivid writing.
