5C - States for Presentation -Instructions


UNITED STATES FOR PRESENTATION
The United States attracts tourists and immigrants from all over the world looking for a piece of the American Dream. In your PRESENTATION you should talk about a US state of your choice – give a little bit of geographical and historical background but focus on what makes your state interesting! Tourist attractions, interesting stories, TV shows that are set there, important people from that state.  You MUST INCLUDE AT LEAST ONE manufacturer that calls the state its home.
 
Do your research in English!  We will begin presentations Thursday, January 16.  Length:  7 minutes (Pecha Kucha*) + questions = maximum 10 minutes.  The main thing is to speak freely (and make it interesting!)

* Pecha Kucha is a presentation technique.  You select 20 slides for a Power Point presentation (no text!).  The Power Point is timed – 20 seconds for each slide.  During that 20 seconds, you speak only about that slide.  When the slide switches, you make an appropriate transition and speak for 20 seconds about the next slide.  20x20 = 400÷60 = 6:40 minutes

Let me know which state you select!
