Speech

My topic is: Bullying

Stop bullying! Did you know you can get hurt from bullying and people can actually die from bullying. Bullying is something that is a repeated action, it might be calling names, hitting, or being mean to someone online. There are all sorts of bullying and I’m going to talk about 3 types of bullying.

The first type of bullying is Cyber bullying. Cyber bullying means someone is bullying you online or over the internet. People could send nasty messages to someone else over and over. They might make a horrible comment to someone on Facebook. Sometimes you don’t even know who the bully is online. 

The second type of bullying is Public bullying. Public bullying means someone is bullying you in public. It can be when someone targets you to hurt you every day at school. This could be someone saying nasty things or hurting you over and over.

The final type of bullying is family bullying. Family bullying means someone in your family is bullying you. When a bigger person in your family bullies you all the time.

Bullying is something that means someone is bullying you anywhere and at any time. Bullying is repeated over and over again. I believe bullying should be stopped.

I chose this topic because its a thing we need to stop.

I felt great when saying my speech.

I did great volume in my voice.

I needed more eye contact.
