| "The fear of speaking is greater
than death… Only five percent of the people in the world have the
confidence to speak to an audience…Who will those five percent be
when our children reach adulthood?...Remember, no matter what your
children do when they become adults, they will be required to
communicate." Jeannie Fulbright highlights just how important it
is to have developed our communication skills.
(See the Jeannie Fulbright website for more details on Speak UP!) In this course you child will have the opportunity to learn, practice, and build important communication and public speaking skills. We will also learn about being effective listeners and giving positive and constructive feedback. During class students will play fun verbal games, participate in speaking activities and present prepared speaking assignments. The genres of speech that will be covered are dramatized readings, performing memorized pieces of literature, humorous interpretation, original oratory, impromptu speeches, persuasive speeches, dramatizations and expository speeches. Every 4 to 5 weeks, students will prepare one of these speech assignments to share with the class.
