first lady project

  1. Hayley LaRoe,

    Strengths

    1. Clear, pleasant speaking voice.
    2. Pace of presentation was good.
    3. It was interesting that her family had 15 slaves.
    4. It was interesting that her role in the White House was similar to that of a stay at home mom. Her political involvement was much less that other first ladies.

    Weaknesses

    1. Name her siblings.
    2. You stated that no one knew where the couple met, but you could have stated when the public first learned that they were a couple.
    3. You said she graduated, but never mentioned the school or whether it was a college or a high school or something else.
    4. You repeated the fact that she was 31 when her husband became president.
    5. You talked about her husband’s successor as president and who he defeated. That was off the topic, and your time would have been better spent talking more about her and her husband.
    6. Some hesitation and some stuttering.

    Overall grade B 25/30
