Homemade Cookies vs. Store Bought Cookies




For PEACH's Speakers Club, Abigail presented her 3 to 5 minute persuasive speech today. The guidelines are simple, to convince the audience of an idea or subject.  Abigail choose to persuade her group that, 'Homemade Cookies Are Better Than Store Bought Cookies.'  Her points included comparable pricing, more wholesome ingredients and of course, taste! 

The speech was enhanced by the samples of cookies she provided! Passing out the sample did fluster her a bit and she has the dreaded 'uumm' a few times in the beginning, but it is all part of the learning process.  I proposed to Mrs. Hansen that Abigail should have to present the lesson again next week, minus the 'uumms' but with the samples! 

You shall bring from your dwelling places two loaves of bread to be waved, made of two tenths of an ephah. They shall be of fine flour, and they shall be baked with leaven, as first fruits to the Lord. Leviticus 23:17
