Monday-Nov 30, 2009

Today is another enjoyable day which Jimmy has talked about presentation and storytelling. He asked us to tell three things about ourselves that two things have to be true and one is not true. All of us have to stand in front of the class and give a speech which I think this is a good practice before we have our final presentation next Monday. Most of us get nervous when we stand in front of the class because of the body language which is moving their bodies, looked up on their left hand side or folding their arms; however, some of them were good presenters. We have discussed a little bit about how to avoid the body language when we have a presentation, and we have to read our audiences while we give a speech. we have to tell about what we have done during Thanksgiving after we finished the presentation.
