Hi...
Well I'd write something close to myself as it'll be easier to act it and make it real.
It could be about a guy, your age, talking to a friend, a counsellor, a girlfriend about something going on in his life.. maybe feelings for a girl, questioning his sexuality, finding out he was adopted perhaps?
Write it in your own language,the way u talk as a 14 year old.
Time it to last 3 minutes.
Make it dramatic,every line should be necessary, no padding.
You could try putting a bit of comedy in but make it look unintentional, a funny way of expressing something thats not funny.
dont try to write for laughs..
Read some other monologues to get an idea on

Good luck

Write about being an average 14 year old guy. And what that means. And what do you want to be. And how do you get there. And how do you know your an average fourteen year old guy. And who's not. And how do you know he's not. Or they're not. And if you are all average, and after all, if you are average., isn't that okay. Or it should be. But its not. You getthe idea. Start there and let it flow with every idea. Follow the bouncing ball. Write from and to the heart.

Write about something you know. Family is always good. It's something you know a lot about that everyone can relate to. Write about the weird habits of your parents and siblings. It's ok to exaggerate a little.

One idea is to start with
"When I was thinking about what I would say today, I realized I'd have to sell myself. So I decided to approach it as a Presidential candidate...."
Then tell what your for and against in first person
"Jon Smith is for football" "Jon Smith is against green vegetables"
Mix it in with true statements about yourself and end with
"I hope I can count on your vote!"
If you sell it well it will be hilarious!

Just do a biography of yourself that lasts about a minute and a half. What a dumb assignment. Your teach is probably inept.
