We have so much to be thankful for even though
daily we hear of another thing to worry about.
Let's make an effort to celebrate the things we can
be thankful for starting with our freedoms and you
can make your own list of blessings.
One of those freedoms here in the USA is Freedom
of Speech. Our mission at Speaking American is to
encourage youngsters to take advantage of this by
building confidence to communicate to an audience
including parents, friends, and students of different
schools. We offer annual statewide Public Speaking
contests in Massachusetts. For 2012 Grades 3-4 have
a required theme focusing on US Postage Stamps. Grade 5
students are free to choose a topic. Grade 6 students
have We the People to talk about. We offer Bi-lingual
Talks also. For 2012 Grades 7-8 talks will be in
English and CHINESE.
Applications for entering the contests are posted as well
as more info on the Calendar deadlines such as
February 10th to enter.
Pass on the word and the opportunity. Hear what these
youngsters have to say. It's something to be thankful for.
