Public Speaking Worksheet: Final Test
Speaker's tip (Know it, then say it): Find the topic of the question: voice, body, words, structure, timing, slides, charts, questions or school events. Use that lesson’s tip and read every option before you choose. For number questions, write the calculation first: words = rate × minutes, the missing pie slice = 100 − the others.
