Grammar/Writing Presentation
You will sign up to present a grammar or writing issue to the class as an activity or a game with a partner or a group. Topics will be approved by me. Choosing something you yourself have difficulty with is a good way to improve your own grasp of the material. Plan for each person to have a specific role in researching, creating, and presenting.
The Presentation should consist of three parts:
1) An introduction of the topic - perhaps showing examples
2) Demonstration of the topic - how to use or create correct grammar
3) A class activity that involves using the grammatical concept you've presented.
Most important - Have Fun with this! Be Creative!
