Introduction to Public Speaking Grades 3 - 5 (BASKING RIDGE ONLY)

2 hours, including a 10/15 minute wiggle break  |  3 - 5p   

This class will explore the very basics of Public Speaking: body posture, facial expressions, hand gestures, eye contact, projection and pacing. An activities-based curriculum will allow students to practice these skills each day (think: presenting silly radio advertisements; "Pitching Your Partner" where kids introduce one another; Awesome Animal presentations, etc.) and will culminate in a short, recorded performance on Thursday to send home to parents. It is an excellent way to prepare students to get back in the classroom, and serves as a precursor to the full Public Speaking 101 curriculum.
