Task: Present a product

Relax: you are not at "Shark Tank".
However, you are going to prepare a presentation on a "new product". It will be in English and it should last between 4min and 5min. 

You may follow the Shark Tank pitching style 

Keep in mind

- Think of the qualities of this product

- Who is your target group?

- What needs does it fulfill?

- What drives the consumer to think of your product?

- What makes it superior or different? (USP)

- 

- When you give a presentation, have in mind enunciation, pronunciation, sentence structure, body language and content.
 Use the feedback received (ask questions if you need more information) to improve your speaking.

- The presenter will choose 3 classmates to give peer feedback. The teacher will choose 2. Feedback is about the presentation, not about the person.

Lesson Objectives  - Did we achieve the goals?

 I can ...

- identify essential points when giving a presentation;

- use words and expressions to give reasons and express consequences;

- think of a product I would like to advertise/ sell. I've started preparing my presentation.
