At Starfish we not only give scholarships, but we promote a well-rounded education for our students. One way we do this is through a new activity we started a few weeks ago during our tutoring sessions. In addition to the regular homework assigned by their schools, each table was assigned a topic to research and later present to the rest of their classmates.

The first set of topics dealt with some very important topics to today's youth - dangers and prevention of drug use, as well as puberty, sexuality, etc. Over the course of 2 weeks 1 group presented each day, with an open discussion afterwards to answer any other questions.

This presentations serve another purpose as well - it's a great chance to practice research and public speaking skills in a friendly environment.

Each month we will assign new topics so that our students continue to learn from each other and excel in the classroom!
