Freshman English Reading A: Spring semester mid-term presentations・前学期中間プレゼンテーション

Hello!

How are you? Here are the guidelines and deadline for our spring semester mid-term presentations (前学期中間プレゼンテーション).

Before we start, as a refresher, here are the board lesson notes from our class last week (5/8):

Now let's look at the mid-term presentation information!

Mid-term presentations (中間プレゼンテーション)
You will make a presentation about the book you chose, and have been reading. Please have these points in your presentation:

• A short summary (要約) about the story - what is it about?
• The main character(s) of the book (or for a non-fiction book - the main real people)
• The qualities (質) or characteristics (性状) of the main character(s) or people
• The most interesting or exciting situation or event in the story or real book
• The character or person you liked the most - and what qualities he or she had 

Guidelines

For this presentation, you can design a small poster or make a Power Point show. 

If you design a poster, I would like you to follow these guidelines:

• It has to be on A3 size paper
• You have to have 4-5 pictures on it (hand-drawn or photos, or a mix)
• It has to be colorful and interesting to look at

      If you make a Power Point show, I would like you to follow these guidelines:  

• You have to have a title slide - then 5-7 slides with pictures and text on it - then a closing slide 
• It has to be colorful and interesting to look at

Deadline (締め切り)

We will do these presentations on June 5th (6/5), so you have three (3) weeks to read your book and work on your presentation display.

Next week (5/22), please show me what you are presenting on and we will make some time to do some work in class on the presentations. 

Then on 5/29, I would like to see your work and we can have a presentation practice time. I can give you some advice on what you can do to make the best presentations you can. 

Please be ready to present on 6/5! 

Good luck! I look forward to our presentation day!
