That speech is WAAAAAYYYYY too long. Does he expect to hold school chidren in rapt attention for 20 minutes?
I bet my daughter that my 6 year old granddaughter will nod off after the third paragraph.
Maybe some of the high-schoolers will, but most of the younger kids will start drawing or nodding off.
I suspect that some teachers will give their kids extra credit or assignments based on what he says, making them pay attention.
I was a teacher for 7 years. The kids are going to be bored to death.
I’m primarily concerned about the after-activities surrounding this speech.
