Article for Middle Matters Title: Introductory Paragraph: Do you want to win an argument? Do you want to inspire your classmates? Do you want to persuade your parent to listen to you? Then this is the club for you. Paragraph 1: This club is absolutely enjoyable. First of all, there is a feeling of thrill when you randomly pick three topics. Second of all, we get to take a closer view on various topics, such as Winnie the Pooh, Barack Obama, Al Qaeda, and even pink pickles. Thus, we can enjoy the humor of certain hyperactive students during the class. Furthermore, we get to comment on other people’s presentations. Paragraph 2: The purpose of this, “Speech and Debate” class is to lean more speaking skills and also, learn to debate with other people. We think in this class that these kids learn a lot of things in this class, and also think that this is a good club to have in our options. Even though there are not a lot of kids that want to come here, people or kids who think they should go in a very helpful club should think about coming to this club. Not only does the purpose of this club is helping you speak, it’s actually fun. Next semester when you have to change your club, I bet there would be more people who come to this club, always remember that this club will make your speaking and debating skills more upgrade. Even though there is no option like this next time I bet you should learn a lot of, “Speech and Debate”, on your own. As you know usually parent would have to make your child go to the academy but then with this club you could get free learning and not pay money or find a academy. Paragraph 3: In order to achieve our purposes, the Speech Club has been working gradually up the staircase of experience. We have gone up the first step - impromptu. To flourish in impromptu speaking, one needs to be quick on their feet. This is because one only has a brief amount of time, 3 minutes, to prepare a speech on a random subject from a category. Many people have found it difficult to crawl over this first step. However, with the help of the teachers, we are coping extremely well. With the right combination of time and hard work one can blossom in this particular subject. Paragraph 4: We have been working on the type of speech called impromptu until now. We will continue to work on different types of speech such as Solo and Duo Interpretation, Prose and Poetry, Oratory, and Extemporaneous. Solo and Duo Interpretation is a type if speech where one or two performers speak a narration. Prose and Poetry is a type of speech in which the performer expresses his/her thoughts on a literary work. Oratory is a type of speech in which the performer orates a memorized literary work composed by the contestant. Finally, extemporaneous is where the performer draws a random topic and gives a speech on the topic that cannot be longer than 7 minutes. We will be practicing these types of speech until the KAIAC Speech Competition on March 19. Paragraph 5:

ENUCIATION

Dropping “g”s is one of the most common examples of poor enunciation. Say this list of words out loud:


 * Going
 * Walking
 * Jogging
 * Thinking
 * Striking
 * Selling

Say these sentences out loud:


 * I’m going to have to rethink that bid.
 * Waiting to hear back from the bank is very nerve-wracking and stressful.
 * Before starting my business, I looked at a lot of different business opportunities.
 * There’s more to learning than just reading, writing and arithmetic.

EVEN MORE! Tongue Twisters (say 3 times each).

1) Keeping customers content creates kingly profits.

2) Success seeds success.

3) Bigger business isn’t better business but better business brings bigger rewards.

4) Wanting won’t win; winning ways are active ways.

5) Seventeen sales slips slithered slowly southwards.

6) Don’t go deep into debt.

7) Ensuring excellence isn’t easy.
