it to make it better like facts etc.
right now this is what ive got:
Out of all eight planets in our solar system Jupiter is the fifth planet in and is also the largest planet apart than the sun. This planet was known since ancient times relating to ancient Greek mythology and religious belief of many cultures of the world. Jupiter was named after the roman god that rules over law and social order also known as Jove. When seen from earth Jupiter is the 3rd largest object in the night sky with the moon and Venus 1st.

Jupiter is made up of about 93% hydrogen and 7% helium

I might make a few recommendations:
First, the correct spelling is "speech"
I would just say "out of all the planets" since there is still some
controversy over whether there are 8 or 9. However, Jupiter
is the 5th planet OUT from the sun, not in, and of course the
sun is not a planet, but as star, as mentioned earlier. Jupiter
is the largest planet. However, I would also say that it is the
third BRIGHTEST object in the night sky, after the moon &
Venus. The gas composition is good; ammonia & methane
have also been found in the thick atmosphere, which is all
we can see when we view Jupiter through a telescope.
Jupiter is believed to have a rocky core with the thick
atmosphere surrounding it. It also has several dozen moons
of its own, and 4 of them can be seen with small telescopes.
Maybe this will help.

Well, everyone already stated the obvious that the Sun is a star not a planet...

beyond that... why do you single out Jupiter as being a planet relating to ancient greek mythology... all the planets in our system were named for greek gods... except Earth of course...

also, as far as the third largest object in the sky; this is subjective... if you meant planets, than the moon wouldn't count... if you were including everything, than you forgot the Sun, and I'm rather sure Polaris would be larger as well... this is also rather trivial information that seems irrelevent to mention... feels like you're trying to just fill space.

Your speech implies that the sun is a planet. It is a star. Roman needs to be capitalized.

What about the times of the year that you can see it. How many moons it has--both major moons and minor moons. Size comparison compared to the earth. Distance from the sun compared to the distance between the sun and earth. How long are Jupiter days and years?
Jupiters big red spot and what that is. What space probes have visited Jupiter and did they bring us any new information? Pictures are great at speaches too.

> When seen from earth Jupiter is the 3rd largest object in the night sky with the moon and Venus 1st.

Change this sentence to read as follows:

"When seen from earth Jupiter is the 3rd brightest object in the night sky, with the moon and Venus 1st and 2nd."

First of all the sun is not a planet, it is a star. Second you really need to stick to scientific fact or presumptions. Leave the mythology and astrology for some other class. You really need to make an outline so you are not jumping around. The listener needs to be able to follow what you are trying to get across.

One thing I catch right away is the Sun is not considered a Planet. Its a Star.
But there should be all kinds of info about Jupiter on thew web.
