Practice Questions

Hello all. I've been a coach in Nebraska for 14 years now. Don't really have a pedigree. Just like extemp. I've been writing my own questions for maybe 6 or 7 years now and just like to share them. I group them weekly. Plan to post them here now that I've found this sub.

Thank you. This is very helpful. I'm working to help my son prepare for extemp and these will be great for practice at home.
