assessment on their activity notebook with the following questions;

issue that you are going to discuss to them?
2. From the data that you have gathered, how are you going to address your
audience's needs in writing a speech?
3. What are the possible words you are going to use to show respect to your
audience?
4. In writing a speech, why do we need to know our audience?
5. As a speaker, do you think that we need to consider our audience in terms of
their race, gender and age? Why?
