Sample Practice Questions: http://www.futurecity.org/sites/default/files/practicequestions_0.pdf

  • Have the students practice their presentation infront of the class, teacher and you the mentor
  • Coach them on good pace, good animation, good clear speaking.
  • Make sure they practice, have fellow students/peers provide a critique of their presentation (write down comments and hand to the presenters as constructive feedback)
  • Don’t forget, January is the perfect time to contact a local newspaper or school paper to have a reporter photograph and share the neat things that these students have accomplished!
