Most freshmen in Mrs. Kate Arthurs-Goldberg’s Speech I class present their demonstration speeches from the front of the classroom, but sometimes the presentation needs a little more space. In this instance, the class took a walk to the courtyard where freshman Jack Battaglia demonstrated slacklining for his assignment. Much like tightrope walking, slacklining is the act of walking or balancing along a suspended length of flat webbing that is tensioned between two anchors. Thankfully, using the posts in the courtyard offered a short and safe distance to fall.
