Slide8A Word about time limits…
One board member is designated as the time keeper
The time they record is honored by the entire board
This means if you blow your time limit you will automatically have to redo your speech since all board members will have to record a “developing” in the time column of the rubric
There is no rule against keeping time for yourself. A stopwatch at the podium can save you a lot of stress!
