How To Give High School Presentations Logan UT

Steps

1. When Preparing for Your Presentation
   • Keep your introduction short and strong.
   • Keep text to a minimum; because if you don't, people will tend to read it than to listen to you.
   • Check the font size. Make sure that people can read it from a distance.
   • Use pictures, graphs, and charts to get your ideas across. Avoid complicated charts, keep visual ideas simple.
2. Giving The Presentation
   • Think positive.
   • Speak slowly, do not talk so fast that no one knows what you are saying. Pause when you need to take a breath.
   • Do not agonize over mistakes-- don't say you're sorry.
   • Smile, laugh and joke, if appropriate. A little humor can go along way, but don't over do it.
   • To make sure everyone understands what you're talking about, ask if anyone has any questions at the end of every slide.
   • End strong.

Tips

• Practice.
• Pass out an outline of what you'll be talking about.
• Think about your audience, and how they can relate to what you're talking about.
• Don't panic.

Warnings

• Remember, giving a presentation is hard work, make sure that you've done enough research on your topic.
