Steps

  1. Think of the type of presentation Decide on whether to use PowerPoint, a diorama, a speech, or a skit. There are many more ideas to choose from, so select the type that suits the topic.
  2. Make a rough draft. If you're writing on something like poster board, you might prefer to make a rough draft on a different piece of paper, or sketch really lightly what your going to do on the actual copy. If you're making something like a diorama, draw what you're going to do with the box on a piece of paper. If your making a speech or a PowerPoint, you don't need to make a rough draft. Use a computer for the speech, so you can use spell check and those other tools instead of a dictionary and sort.
  3. Write the final Presentation. Make sure that you do not want to change anything from the rough draft. If you are sure, then go ahead and write, draw, decorate, shape, whatever you have to do to complete it.
  4. Check your work. After you've completed your project,once again check it. Think about whether or not you want to add or take away things.
  5. Practice at home. Prior to actually giving the presentation, stand in front of a mirror, and present it to yourself. If you find yourself suddenly forgetting, a word or sentence, then stop and rehearse that part a few times until you are able to keep speaking and not stopping to think
  6. Understand that when giving your presentation, that you speak clearly, do not clear your throat or hem or haw!. Use proper grammar and pronunciation. If you need help with grammar, check dictionaries, encyclopedias, or even parents or other adults.
  7. Don't be nervous. It is usual for most who give presentations, to be nervous when they finally have to face an audience. The way to combat this, is to rehearse until you remember everything that you have to say. Knowing your facts, without having to stop and think about it, will help you to be sure of yourself and not nervous.

Tips

  • Don't put off work to the last minute. Then your work will be most likely sloppy. If you do well under pressure, do your project a bit at a time and maybe it will get done. Or, try doing it all at the beginning, so then you have the whole rest of the time to play or check your assignment.
  • If you want better words than "The dog ran with the fat cat", use a thesaurus. It could change the same sentence to be "The dog zipped with the chubby cat".
  • Don't be afraid to use adjectives. What adjectives do is to make the sentence more clear. Instead of saying "The fox ate by his den", say "The brown and orange fox ate near his hard, grey, den". It gives you a better picture, doesn't it?
  • Use pictures or visuals. Pictures and visuals show that you know what you're talking about, and it gives the audience a picture of what you're talking about.
  • Don't make your speech too long, unless it is really good, and you have to have done speeches for a long time to have them be that good and long. Stick to short and sweet.
