*Constitution Research Paper*

Our last 2 weeks together will be devoted to student oral presentations.

You may present your information to the class in many different and creative ways. Use your imagination to bring your topic alive. Remember you are the expert on the subject you have researched. This is your chance to be the teacher.

The following are just a few visual ideas for presenting:
-poster
-map, photos, charts
-food
-skit
-short video clip
-bring in real samples and examples
-PowerPoint
-brochure
-wear a costume or hat appropriate to your topic
-student hand-outs

You may read from notes (no need to memorize). DO NOT READ YOUR PAPER!  This is a fun, informative presentation, not an oral reading!!!! Your presentation should be 5 to 10 minutes long.
