Leadership Journeyman Week 6

 

Leadership Journeyman Week 6! LAST WEEK!

I have enjoyed exploring topics related to improving our communication skills over this 6 week course. Being a great communicator -- someone who listens, is clear and concise, empathetic and engaging and asks questions -- is an important skill you will use for the rest of your life. 

Study/Learn

This week you're going to choose one specific communication skill that we haven't yet discussed in class and learn about it in more detail. You're going to research and read at least 3 different articles about your topic. Take notes in your commonplace book!

CLICK HERE to sign up for a topic.

Know/Do

Prepare a presentation that is 1-3 minutes long about your communication skill. Teach it to us and give us concrete examples so we can understand how to apply this skill in our own life. You are teaching us so we can do an activity in class that will require a knowledge of your communication skill, so come prepared to teach not just entertain ;) 

Finally, those of you that gave me your article, you should receive it back from me no later than Monday. Take the edits I've given you and make the changes to your article.

Once you've done that, click HERE and click on "Submit Your Work" (on the left hand side if you're on a computer, in the dropdown menu if you're on a phone) to follow the instructions to submit your article online! I would LOVE to see one of you get an email during this school year that your article has been accepted! That will be pretty cool so make sure to share if it happens :) 

IF YOU DID NOT come to journeyman last week, then instead of editing and submitting your article you need to go to the same link and instead enter your answer for the magazines question of the month. Here is the info for that:

What Do You Think?
“How do I keep my hopes up when I didn’t get the blessings I was hoping for?”

Go to ftsoy.ChurchofJesusChrist.org and click “Submit Your Work.” Sign in with your Church Account and then select “For the Strength of Youth” under “Choose Magazine.” Click “Add File” to select your file and photos, and then click “Submit” to upload and send us your file.
Responses may be edited for length or clarity.

That's it! See you on Thursday :)
