Thursday 11/6

Today we talked about the important elements of a good presentation. Students are going to present their topic and their individual slides on Monday.  We initially thought presentations would happen tomorrow but due to so many students being out for All County (CONGRATULATIONS!!) we think we better make tomorrow be an intense practice day.  Remember the following points:

• Engage your audience by letting them know what is happening around your topic
• Engage your audience by speaking their language--identify who people and places are
• Give points of reference so the audience can make sense of the information you are providing
• Answer the question "So What?" make sure we know why the information you provided matters-what are we supposed to think about it?
• Control pacing
