Communication - Thursday, Period 5

[no-toast-thanks.livejournal.com]

"As I told you last week, this week's class is about public speaking. Public speaking is an important part of communication in that it trains you to organise your thoughts effectively and allows you practice at speaking in front of people you otherwise wouldn't be comfortable with.

If you haven't prepared your speech and can't get it done by the time it's your turn to speak, then this week you'll be getting a lesson in improvisation. If you have a serious problem with this assignment, I'll be at the back of the room. Feel free to come and speak with me."

Jeff had a very important point about that. "But what if I end up saying 'breasts' accidentally?"

"The speech can be about anything you'd like as long as it's kept clean, breasts included."

His eyes finally flicked to her... face. "Breasts," he repeated, solemnly.

She managed to keep a straight face. In retrospect, she wasn't entirely sure how. "Yes. Women have them. Some men have them too. If you think you can talk to the class about breasts for two minutes, you're welcome to."

Jeff nodded slowly. "Breasts," he said again, then turned back towards the class.

This was going to be interesting.
