Heads-up: IMPROMPTU SPEECH COMPETITION

Dear all, 
 
Our next competition is meant for the gymnasium level students and takes place on 26th February in 2015 at 14:00 in Võru Kreutzwaldi Gymnasium

Registration is due 23rd February 2015. at ruthtalmet@hotmail.com
 
Description of the contest: 
The students will be paired up and Student A picks a topic that s/he has to talk about. 
S/he has 1 minute to prepare/organise his/her ideas/thoughts and then the student has to talk on the topic for 3 minutes. The other student, let's call him Student B, has to listen to Student A carefully as he (Student B) has to ask at least 3 questions (max 5 questions) from Student A. When the questions are asked, the whole procedure is reversed and now student B picks a topic and has 1 minute to prepare and 3 to talk on. Of course, then he is questioned by Student A.
 
The topic will be displayed on the projected screen so that the audience and the judges can look at them and think along.
 
Let me know if there are any other questions concerning the contest.

Regards, 
Ruth Talmet
