Delivering a presentation of a report on Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole
Lesson details
Learning outcome
I can present a non-chronological report on Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole.
Key learning points
- Presentations can be spoken aloud to an audience.
- Presentations are effective ways to share information.
- Presentations should be spoken clearly and at a suitable volume for the space you are in.
Keywords
Presenting - involves speaking in front of others and listening to others
Audience - a group of people gathered to watch a presentation or performance
Volume - how loud or quiet something is
Rehearsing - practising something before you perform in order to get better at it
Common misconception
Pupils may speak very quickly, quietly and not look up from their page when presenting their report.
The teacher says a word or phrase in a loud, clear voice and the children have to echo it back as loudly and clearly as they can.
Teacher tip
Physically model strong body language, voice projection, diction and eye contact throughout the lesson. Allow the children to give feedback to their peers after their presentations.
