Class Presentation

I have a few presentations coming up and I am nervous. I believe that I am a bad public speaker. Later on today I have to present my self portrait....I have written down on a sheet of paper what I want to say about my self portrait. I've practiced presenting my self portrait many times to loved ones and I have messed up. Is it a good idea to read my speech to the class?

I've found if you write down a few brief notes as a reminder it is easier than just reading off your paper. It sounds better, too. Also, just remember everyone having to speak is just as nervous as you and most likely won't even be paying attention.
