The concern with my pitch has nothing to do with the pitch it's the actual speaking part I am worried about. I have practiced my pitch but still worried about speaking. I may practice over and over but it is a completely different situation when you are speaking with Ms. Weck watching. Also there is that fear of messing up while talking and it could make it look like you are not prepared. The confidence I have in my pitch is very high. I did not have any trouble making my pitch and I was able to answer the questions on the worksheet very easily. I believe that my information in my pitch will be perfect. I answered all the questions and feel that it will make a wonderful pitch.

THE START

So far the project is interesting and a little difficult. The fact that I am able to choose what I want to do for this project makes it so interesting. Being able to decide the subject I want study makes the project so interesting. Also the difficult part about the project is that I have never be in this contol.  I have never got to choose what I want to study and this is putting me out of my comfort zone. Not that many people know what Sign Language is. They know that it is the langauge in which people communicate but that is all they know. With is project i would plan to teach people more about this language so that they could learn more about it.  http://lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-layout/concepts.htm and 100 first signs.
