What does my child need to begin?

Please send your child with a binder, binder dividers, a pen, and a pencil to every practice. Place some loose leaf paper in their binder also. We will add materials to the binder all year. Keep all papers in the binder. These materials will be needed for students that attend nationals and can be kept to study for competitions for years in the future.

How can I help my child become a better player? Students can practice Propaganda and Presidents online at http://agloa.org/ Your player can begin to read biographies of American Presidents to prepare for the Presidents competition. We will only study Presidents # 25-44 this school year. The four point clue focus in campaign slogans. You can purchase any books on the Presidents or events in American history. Many students find it helpful to watch documentaries on television. Attendance is crucial to improving student’s skills at competitions. Some parents buy flashcards to help their child study when preparing for competitions.
