Before you start answer these questions:

• Why are you making the presentation?

• What do you want people to learn?

• How are you going to make it interesting?

EXAMPLE:  Let's say I want to tell people about volcanoes. I want people to know about why volcanoes form and why they erupt. This would be an informative/awareness-raising presentation. So by the end, everyone should know something new about volcanoes, and they should be able to tell others about them. My plan might look like this:

• Introduction - what is a volcano?

• Types of volcano

• Volcanoes around the world

• My favourite volcano

• Conclusion

• Questions

 Things your teacher will be looking for:

-Range/Accuracy of vocabulary
-Range/Accuracy of grammar
-Presentation/Discourse management (Is it well structured? What linking words are used and how?)
-Paralinguistic features/Non-verbal communication (eye contact,voice,tone)
