Class Description and Goal:
This is an introductory class to public speaking and debate. The goal of this class is for all students to gain a basic understanding of the activity in a fun and positive environment.

​

☻ Body language, vocal variety, tone, and eye contact
☻ Speech writing, research, and memorization
☻ Basics of argumentation, cross examination, and case writing
☻ Listening and being a respectful audience member to others
