Today

• Instructions on how to present
• What should your Powerpoint look like? 
• How will your presentations be graded?

Leerdoelen

• Ik kan navertellen wat er van mij wordt verwacht bij het maken van een presentatie
• Ik kan benoemen wat de aandachtspunten zijn bij het maken van een Powerpoint presentatie 

Instructions on how to present

• You will present in English. 
• You will present alone, in pairs of in groups of three.
• The presentation will be given during class time. 
• You will be allocated a slot in weeks 47 + 48
• This counts for 10x towards your average. 
• The topic is up to you, but should be appropriate in level. Try to find appropriate vocabulary, grammar and information. I do not want to hear about your pet. 
• For topics you could consider: your favourite book/author, a movie/director, a country/capital city, an elaborate discussion about a sport

Instructions on how to present

• Each person should present for about 5 minutes. This includes showing an optional video of no more than 1 minute.
• You are not allowed to read out during your presentation, so you will either learn your part by heart or bring a cheat sheet/cue cards with the most important points.
• You will stand in front of the classroom while presenting. This means that you are not allowed to sit down, even when you are not the person who is talking at that moment.
• Presenting with someone else means working together. It should be clear that you have worked on the Powerpoint together, but also that you wrote the story together. 

What should your Powerpoint look like? 

• Making a Powerpoint presentation is mandatory. 
• Powerpoints should not contain (too many) complete sentences, use key words.
  
• Powerpoints should contain pictures/photos to support your presentation
• Powerpoints should be in (correct) English.

What should your Powerpoint look like? 

• Your Powerpoint presentation should at least contain the following slides:

- a title slide including what you are presenting about, your names and class (and probably a photo/picture)
- a contents page including what you are going to talk about during your presentation
- a couple of slides containing information about the topic/subtopics
- a slide containing the question whether there are any questions
- a final slide with some sort of conclusion 

How will your presentations be graded?

• I will grade your presentation. 
• You will be graded on: use of English (vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure, fluency, pronunciation), production strategies, content, whether you've followed the assignment properly (time, powerpoint, working together)
• Marks will be returned in the week after the final presentations.  

What is expected from the class during the presentations? 

• You listen respectfully during someone else's presentation. 
• In pairs, you think of at least two questions you could ask the students who are presenting. 

What to do?

• Work on week task: assignment 14 - 22
• Work on presentations
• Work on practical assignment 'Gulliver's Travels' (due next Friday)
