The Creatures Under My Bed...

The Ninth Age classes are presenting their PowerPoints this week and are practicing their public speaking skills! During the last several class periods, students created PowerPoints to go along with their "Creature Under My Bed" compositions. Now, we're set to show off our hard work and to tell fantastic stories about the little monsters we invented in our imaginations! Check out the list below for some tips you can use when you are speaking in public. This list was generated by the boys of 9-2!
