Tag: Rules

How well do you know the rules? When you see a speed limit sign that states 25 mph- does that mean you need to start driving 25 mph before or after you reach the sign? I think speech rules are often read, but I wonder how many students are  actually understanding them. Today I am going to break down a couple of my favorite NCFCA Interp Rules... (Of course this is only my interpretation)...

You are working on a hot topic.  You have a killer idea for a speech this year.  You want to try something outside-the-box in one of your interps.  This is the kind of thinking I LOVE!  I get excited  when I have conversations along these lines with my students.  But I always advise them to check the rules BEFORE they get too deep in the development.
