Presentation
#1: A Person in My Life Who I Admire
Who is a person in your life who you
admire? Choose one person. It can be anyone: older, younger, a sibling, parent,
relative, friend, community member, etc.
This week, you will put together a
short presentation around the person. There will be two parts to this project:
WRITTEN (2 paragraphs) (6 points)
-A paragraph describing who they
are. What is their name, age, etc? Give their background. Explain who they are.
-A paragraph explaining why you
admire them. What characteristics do they have that you admire? What do they do
that you admire?
SPOKEN (3-4,5 minutes) (4 points)
On next Tuesday and Wednesday, you
will tell the class about this person and why you admire them. You can come to
the front of the class and talk to us. You can take a few written notes in case
you forget something. However, no reading.
Here are some possible topics
to focus on:
Their personality traits
Their life story
Their actions
Things they have said
Their greatest achievements
Their effect on other people
How they compare to other people
When you met this person
Why you chose this person to talk about
Why you admire them
If you’d like to be like them or not
If you think you could be like them or not
We will start getting ideas together starting
today. We will take some time in the next few classes to organize, write, and
polish.
Also, I will teach people how to use a
microphone.
You can use a mic for your presentation.
