Step-by- Step Process

1. Find a Topic

2. Look over the section (book, websites, teachers, or other help)

3. Break the topic up in to bits

4. Mold the words to fit your personality (make sure you keep the concept in tact)

5. Practice the material

6. Create a tone to fit the presentation and your style

7. Practice for presantation

Idea

• To get the reader to understand the material and to retain the information. Also to have a way to connect the students to the section or information being presented in class. Finally to have that personal relationship with the term or material learned.

• To build a connection • Student to student

• Student to teacher
