My 5th grade daughter is standing for school president. How can she make her 1 min election speech attractive?

This is the first time she will be stading for the school president’s position, she will get ONE minute to give a speech to the students.

How can we make the speech interesting, and attractive? Any suggestions? Anything which will get the attention of the kids.

I’d just say that she needs to tell the truth about how she can make a difference. Maybe she dislikes the school food and would like to make it healthier— that would be great if she could follow up on it. Good luck!

I think this should be something that she handles completely on her own. Certainly you can support her and show interest in what she is doing but, for instance, I don’t think it should be part of your role to research how she should writing her speech. Let her do the research! Let her write and construct the speech! Let her put herself at stake and not you. It’s a kids’ thing and it should be a kids’ thing and the more parents get involved in what I see as inappropriate and completely unnecessary ways, the more unfair it is to the kids and the less the kids gain. Back off and let your kid handle it.

I would say that it is all about presentation and getting the crowd involved. Showing school spirit and asking the kids what they want. Say that she would like to see what they want and she will do her best to get that done.
