Dear Erik,

Surprise! I believe you didn't expect a note from your mom in your lunchbox! How is your school day so far? I hope it is going well. You always do your best. I am proud of you! Because I had to leave so early this morning, I wrote this note last night and put it into your lunchbox to wish you well on your speech today. With all of your amazing research, writing, and practice, you are going to do great!

I know that you get a little nervous talking in front of large groups — everybody does. But, just remember what you practiced and you just might forget about being nervous.

Here are just a few things to remember when you are giving a speech:

1. Make eye contact(眼神交流) with your classmates.

2. Speak clearly and slowly.

3. Look at your notecards only when you have to.

4. Enjoy yourself! Once you are in front of the class, pretend (假装) that you are a

5. famous expert on your topic and everyone is listening carefully to your EVERY word. (I do that sometimes!)

Well, that's all for now. I am thinking of you today and I know you will do great. Do your best and be brave like George Washington. He was an excellent choice for your speech.

Good luck Erik!

Maybe we can go out for ice cream after school!

Love,

Mom
