Your Voice: Public Speaking

Have fun writing and delivering speeches in front of a supportive group and begin to develop this lifelong skill. We will write short speeches about subjects that interest us and practice reading them out loud in this low-pressure environment. Focus on skills such as standing up tall, using a loud voice, and making eye contact. Watch famous and not-so-famous public speakers and analyze their deliveries. At the end of the week we will create our own TV news broadcasts with you as the anchors.
