Decent Presentation

The one presentation flopped. Badly. So I tried to have a better game plan for the next one.

Trying to have the students engage in the presentation helped. I wrote a simple sentence on the board and asked them to help me elaborate with detaily words. (I didn't say detaily in the classroom, it is just fun to type). The class seemed somewhat interested, and may actually come over for help.

notes for next time:

Bring a jump drive to show the class. Someone had one, but it would be nice to simply hold it up and say "These are so helpful, get one!"

Smile. it makes it seem as if you actually like presenting.

Ee, floppage is not good. Not unless you are an Amazonian tribal woman doing jumping jacks.

What do you know about the previous writing contests? What types of prizes did we have?
