A Little Communication FUN!

A few fun ways to teach communication skills!  Many of these are on our website in the Playground!  Come by and take a look.  There's more where that came from:  http://www.ArtofEloquence.com
 

Your Communication Rights

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be misquoted, then used against you.


 "Tis better to be thought a fool, than open one's mouth and remove all doubt." Samuel Johnson

"The mind is like a TV set-when it goes blank, it's a good idea to turn off the sound." Anonymous 

"Wise men talk because they have something to say, fools because they have to say something." Plato


Clarity of Impromptu Speaking

Question: If you could live forever, would you and why?

Answer: "I would not live forever, because we should not live forever, because if we were supposed to live forever, then we would live forever, but we cannot live forever, which is why I would not live forever," --Miss Alabama in the 1994 Miss USA contest.


 "Never argue with a fool.  Someone watching might not be able to tell the difference." -Unknown


Government Communication

"Your food stamps will be stopped effective March 1992 because we received notice that you passed away. May God bless you. You may reapply if there is a change in your circumstances." --Department of Social Services, Greenville, South Carolina

About Me

I was raised by two Atheists of Jewish heritage, married a non practicing Catholic and became a non denominational Christian due, in part, to some Amway meetings and a Jehovah's Witness who came to my door. My purple crayon writes with humor and almost always a little out of the lines. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This blog is my creative and fun way of sharing my thoughts on communication skills relating mostly to homeschooling and sharing and defending the faith. It also reveals a bit about how the Lord took this shy Agnostic girl and allowed her to find her voice and her purpose, a zany voice to the Christian community with insight as to what unbelievers need to hear about Christ Jesus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ DON'T MISS: Tuesday Tips, Misadventures of Foot in Mouth Man, Friday Funnies, Defending the Faith SONdays ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For more creative fun with JoJo you can visit www.ArtofEloquence.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver." -Proverbs 25:11
