Book Description
SPEAK OUT is a public speaking course aimed at 10 to 12 year old students.
The book’s aims are twofold -
For Teachers
To provide a range of speech-based activities which can be integrated across the curriculum.
For Students
To provide varied opportunities for verbal expression in a non-threatening environment and so improve confidence in public speaking.
In today’s world successful people are, by necessity, successful speakers. Every adult must be able to speak clearly and confidently in a range of situations, from large gatherings to business meetings. Even those applying for the most menial jobs must be able to perform well at job interviews, and in personal matters every individual must be able to state a case clearly and ensure his/her rights are not infringed. Yet few students leave school equipped with such skills. One reason for this is that students learn to fear these situations at an early age. Another reason is that teachers find it difficult to create opportunities for practicing and developing public speaking skills. Every teacher knows the reaction s/he will get following a directive to "prepare a three minute speech on...".
This book attempts to alleviate these problems by providing activities which are fun and stress-free for students, yet which develop effective speech skills.
