- What are things you are passionate about?
- What is your family like?

- How would they become a superhero?
- What would their superpowers be?
- What would their name be?
- What would they look like?
- What would their main purpose be?
- Would they be good superheroes or villains? Why would they choose that?
- What would their superhero gadgets be?
- Where would their lair (hideout) be and what would it look like?
Students should:
- Use their time wisely in class so they do not have to work on it at home.
- Time their speech to make sure it is right around 1 minute, not too short and not too long
- Practice their speech to make sure they feel comfortable.
- Have a way of supporting themselves through their speech, meaning they can use notecards or a manuscript, however, they may not read their speech but need to deliver it as best as they can.
- Content does not get assessed, only speaking skills.
