What are 4-H Presentations?
4-H Presentations are a huge part of North Carolina 4-H. It is one of the most successful ways to help a young person learn public speaking skills. It focuses on 4-H members teaching others what they know about a particular project/subject matter of their choice!
Benefits of 4-H Presentations:
- Teaches life skills
- Increase public speaking skills
- Increase self-confidence
- Increase knowledge & interest in a specific subject matter
- Helps youth with communication, college/post-secondary education, and careers.
4-Hers who do a presentation develop self-confidence, the ability to speak in front of an audience, and the ability to think ahead. Youth will present at County Activity Day and then District Activity Day. Any youth that wins at District Activity Day will advance to the State competition.
