Teen Speaker's Club

Abigail's Pool Cake




Comparison Speech








Our homeschool group, PEACH, hosts a Youth Speakers Club for Jr. & Sr. High schoolers .  This is the first year to offer a speakers club, in years past Caleb has participated in Toastmasters and a Speech and Debate Club.  In this Speaker’s Club youth are assigned and deliver nine different styles of speeches. 
 
The club is supplemental to their school courses in a workshop style class that provides emphasis on various styles of speeches and on speaking and leadership skills.  It has been a great asset to help the kids overcome nervousness, and organizing and presenting their ideas in a logical and convincing manner. 
Today the kids celebrate the conclusion of this year’s program with their final speeches followed by trophies and a pool party. 

But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,  keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.
I Peter 3:15-16
