Build Your Students' Speaking Power: A Teacher's Manual for the Leaders of Tomorrow Speech Program.
Snyder, Ken
This manual, appropriate for grades 3-12, is designed to help teachers and other educators who lack experience in public speaking to integrate speech into their students' curriculum. The manual offers teachers the opportunity to learn a simple program for teaching speech in the classroom. It teaches basic public speaking skills, highlighting the following topics: how to control nerves; six keys for presenting an interesting, dynamic speech; how to choose a speech topic; rehearsal techniques; listening skills; and speech evaluation. Each chapter in the manual contains exercises which reinforce the pedagogy. The manual allows teachers in elementary through college classrooms to introduce speech to students is a way that is easy, effective, and non-threatening. Blackline masters are attached. (NKA)
