Oral Presentation

Students will break into groups of 4, and be assigned a country. Each student in that group will be responsible for researching one of the following topics for that country: customs, traditions, geography, and current events. Each group will then present thier findings, using visual aids to the class. Each topic should be presented using a two-minute presentation. The group is to then work together to hand in a one page, typed paper describing what they found in each of the four areas. If students want to work in smaller groups, they are allowed, but all four topic must still be covered with a two minute presentation. So, for example, a group of two would have to present 4 minutes of material each.

Students will perform a skit to demonstrate mastery of vocabulary related to greetings and introductions. Students are working in groups of 2-3 students. Students must prepare a brief skit (2 minutes to 3 minutes) that include phrases and expressions related to greetings and introductions. Each group will have 20 minutes to write their skits and should be prepared to act out their skits. While the skits are being performed, class members are to observe and listen.
