Where to find information?

Search for information in the library or use the internet.

Don’t copy everything! Make your own sentences!

Powerpoint!

During your ICT lessons the teacher will learn you how to use Powerpoint. Also in those lessons you can work on your History Presentation.

3 days before the presentation your group sent the powerpoint by school e-mail to the teacher.

Tips for Presentation!

· Look into the class and to your classmates

· Don’t read from your paper ( you are aloud to bring little notes with you)

· Rehearsal at home

· Ask question in the end ( look what your class has learned from you)

· Try to breath slowly

Good luck!
