Speech Contest information
School Speech Contest Details
School Speech Contest
Instructions for participants*
"Hunger in America" is the topic for the 2016 School Speech Contest.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 48.1 million people lived in food-insecure households in 2013. This means that at some points during the year, their households were uncertain of having, or unable to acquire, enough food because of insufficient resources. Approximately 8.6 million of these individuals were children. Students are asked to explore this issue of hunger in America from an individual, local, state or national perspective.
In organizing their speeches, students may choose to consider the following questions or present on their own aspect of the topic:
Who is affected by hunger?
How does hunger in the United States compare to hunger in other countries?
How does hunger impact my school or community?
What are some of the contributing factors to hunger?
What can individuals, communities or governments do to combat hunger?
Students may use these questions to help formulate ideas, but they should not be limited by the list.
Speeches must be at least three minutes and no more than five minutes long. Speeches must be in the student’s own words.
Judging criteria
Contestants will be judged using the following 100-point system:
40 points for material organization
This accounts for theme and subject adherence, structure, content, logic and color.
40 points for delivery and presentation
This includes voice, pronunciation, enunciation, gestures and poise.
20 points for overall effectiveness
This scores impression and effect.

Plagiarism
WHAT IS PLAGIARISM?
Many people think of plagiarism as copying another's work or borrowing someone else's original ideas. But terms like "copying" and "borrowing" can disguise the seriousness of the offense:
ACCORDING TO THE MERRIAM-WEBSTER ONLINE DICTIONARY, TO "PLAGIARIZE" MEANS
- to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own
- to use (another's production) without crediting the source
- to commit literary theft
- to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source
Students who copied their saint papers off of a website have received a zero in their Saint Research Reports.

Welcome Back to the 2015-2016 School year
Dear parents,
I would like to welcome you all back to the new school year. For those of you who do not know, I'm the 5-8 grade ELA teacher, and 5-6 grade Religion teacher. This year we will be working on a lot of new areas, focusing on the New York State Common Core Standards. Here are a few pointers to help you through this school year:
1. https://www.engageny.org/ This is a website that all teacher will be using to help guide instruction. There is a parent section that will help you follow along with what your child or children is learning.
2. All students must have a Gmail email account. I recommend keeping it simple. First and last name, and keep the password simple. We will be using this in class for word documents, power points, and any other form of projects.
3. No parent is allowed to contact a teacher without making an appointment first. That is done by speaking with Alba. Monday- Friday 7:45-8:00 and 3:05pm to 3:20pm.
4. Homework will be written on the blog Daily so it is important for you and your child to stay on top of checking their work.
5. Do not forget to check cornerstone, students behavior, effort, and grades will be update there. If there is a question on your child's work and grading you will find it there.
6. The books that students are reading with Mrs. Larios are required to be brought to ELA class.
