ACADEC Banquet

Dear Team:

The bus departs from MHS at 4P.M. sharp and will be picking us from the bus stop located to the SOUTH of the school.

Dress smart-ly.

Remember that the awards banquet will be held tomorrow evening "at the National Orange Show Events Center in the Valencia Room."

Dear Cavalier ACADEC Team!

Tomorrow's our last day!

I've been humbled by your consistent dedication, focus, and humor.

The Queen's song is funny!

"Remember, the Force will be with us, always..."

Tomorrow

Is the day before competition. We will meet in Mr. Whyte's room, though we will probably spend most of the day in the library, working on speeches and impromptu speeches.
Don't forget to bring the clothes you plan to wear on Saturday, so I can make sure that they are appropriate.
We're almost there you guys!
Just a couple more days :)

- Priscilla "Captain P"

Speeches

Our first day of competition is coming up quite soon - the weekend after next. Since this day is about prepared/impromptu speeches, essays, and interview, we should really be focusing on memorizing our speeches and practicing them as much as possible. Have them in a final state by Tuesday so we can continue our preparation. Now is not the time to create a speech; now is the time to memorize and fine-tune what we already have. Only a 12 more days, and then we give our speeches! So let's be as ready as possible.

Friday Meeting Jan. 16

We will meet in Room 2 tomorrow, Friday 16 from 12:30-1:00P.M.

You must attend meeting.

Bring Your Literature Outline

to me tomorrow so that I may see that you're ready.

One week to go!

On Public Speaking

We will practice the ole' Toast Master's riddle daily from now on out. Be ready. Be prepared --mentally, articulating your speech, organizing your ideas, and honing in on good rhetorical practices while refining your delivery, style, and presence!

Topics will range from current events to Latin America literature, from oddities to Star Wars. Just Kidding. Only on Star Wars.

Cheers,
Whyte
