Solana Beach School District- Child Development Center

Our class will focus on researching and note-taking on various topics, speech writing, rehearsing, presenting, debating, peer feedback, and self-reflection. Students will practice skills in public speaking, teamwork, respectful disagreement, persuasion, and thinking on their feet. In addition to speeches and debates, we will practice speaking through various other means, such as newscasts, “TED Talks,” poetry, and telling jokes!
