Both 101 students and 201 students wrote and gave one minute speech in classes recently. We will share our speeches with a group of 4~5 students. The titles of your speech should be “my daily life” “a place where I want to visit” or “when I was a child . Please bring your speech to language table. Upper class students and Japanese students are also required to share their speech.
