The ability to effectively communicate is one of the most important life skills a young person can learn.

From the earliest stage of membership 4-H'ers learn to become effective communicators by demonstrating their knowledge of chosen topics through Public Presentations and Educational Displays.

The 4-H program offers a variety of public opportunities for youth to practice and polish their Public Presentation and communication skills, and incentivizes their efforts through contests, personal achievement awards, recognition, and event scholarships.

Delivering a 4-H public presentation is just one of the many ways participants develop skills for life. The following link shows the 4-H Targeting Life Skills Model and the many valuable skills learned and assets developed through the 4-H Public Presentation event and similar activities.

4-H Targeting Life Skills Model

This presentation was originally delivered to participants in the Kenai Peninsula 4-H District's Annual Rally Day event at the Kenai Peninsula College on February 1, 2014. 4-H members, parents and club leaders are encouraged to use this tool to help prepare for any upcoming speaking opportunities.
