At one school, students are encouraged to speak up [ à s'exprimer ] and share their ideas. One day, a new student named Emma came to the school. Emma was shy. In her first presentation, the teacher said, "Please speak up [ parlez plus haut ]; we can't hear you at the back." Emma was nervous, but she tried to speak up [ s’exprimer ].

In the same class, there was a boy named Lucas. He was known for his confidence. He often spoke up [ prenait souvent la parole ] during discussions. "If anyone has any suggestions, please speak up [ n'hésitez pas à en parler ]," the teacher said. She wanted more students to speak up [ s'expriment ].

The next week, the school announced new rules that seemed unfair to some. Emma was hesitant to say anything. Many students were upset, so she wanted to speak out [ s'exprimer ]. At a school meeting, she spoke out [ s'est prononcée ] against the unfair rules. Her voice was clear and confident.

Lucas also decided to speak out [ de s'exprimer]. "Emma is right. We need rules that help us grow, not hold us back."

Other students began to speak up too [ a prendre la parole aussi ]. They shared their thoughts and suggestions. The teacher listened and said, "I'm glad you all spoke up [ vous ayez tous pris la parole ]. It's important to share your opinions."

The school principal decided to revise the rules. He appreciated the students for speaking out [ pour s'être exprimés ]. 

From that day on, Emma felt more confident in speaking up [ pour s'exprimer ] during classes. She and Lucas became good friends. They worked together on projects.

At their school, students learn the value of speaking up and speaking out [ de prendre la parole et de s'exprimer ]. They learned to speak up [ s'exprimer ] in presentations, discussions, and meetings. Emma and Lucas inspired other students for speaking up and speaking out [ à prendre la parole et à s'exprimer ].
