10. Write an introduction that will make your audience want to listen to your story.9. Gather facts that make my story newsworthy.

Dear Class,
ReplyDeleteHere are my Top 10!
1. Have an interesting beginning so the listener wants to pay attention
2. Avoid "tongue twisting" titles that confuse your audience
3. Talk to your audience like you're talking to your best friend (Act like your report is a informal conversation)

5. Make sure you are using a trustworthy site to get your information
6. Make eye contact with your audience
7. Relax and don't be stressed out about presenting
