Create a visual presentation to the class. Your purpose is to teach them the material without reading it! You have 5 minutes to read and 10 minutes to prepare.
Select how you would like to present it to the class. It can be in the form of a giant web, a skit, a large paper poster, a song… etc. You will be graded on: _____Having clearly understood the ideas of your thinker. _____Demonstrated this by presenting a clear explanation to the class. _____If you are doing a visual, it must be easy to read and contain the most important points of the reading. DO NOT SIMPLY READ IT FROM THE VISUAL- show that you know what you are talking about by looking at the audience ____ For visuals, use pictures, symbols or any graphs that will help us understand the main ideas of your thinker.
