Last week my dad, Kelcee and I got back from the (OK, here’s the whole spill) NCFCA (National Christian Forensics and Communications Association) Regional tournament in Marietta, Georgia. (By the way, “forensics” is Speech and Debate.) It was a blast! Regionals are longer than regular qualifiers, so it lasted 5 days. We got so much helpful insight at this tournament and learned a lot from just watching other speeches when we weren’t speaking, and talking to the other competitors who had been doing it longer than us. During my spare time I enjoyed doing the following activities: Playing Egyptian Rat Slap (a very fun card game) playing or listening to other people play guitar, watching duos, (a duo is and Interpretive speech where two people “act” out a piece of literature) timing Team Policy Debates (the topic this year is Illegal Immigration), watching friends in their debate rounds, meeting and making new friends, talking to other competitors, playing more Egyptian Rap Slap (which seemed to be the unofficial card game of the tournament. J) We learned so much at this tournament, and I can’t wait for next year! If you want to find out more about NCFCA go to www.ncfca.org NCFCA is an organization for Christian Homeschool students, you learn so much from it, and it’s a lot of fun! |
