You will present your findings to our Octorara Youngsters. • Presentation Points to Remember: • Be positive, cheerful, enthusiastic • Introduce yourself as you wish to be addressed, and as a volunteer with ‘Art Goes to School.’
More ‘Presentation Tips’... • Expectations: (state clearly/list) Raise hands calmly—wait to be called upon—bottoms in seats • Reinforcements: Praise students when they meet your expectations (individually & groups). • Give at least a 5 second response time and say “I’ll come back to you soon.”
More ‘Presentation Tips’... • Point out that these are reproductions of paintings or other works of art, not the original art. • This is one class where all the answers can be “right” answers. Everyone may feel differently about the same pictures, this is ok. Some people will like a piece, some will not, this is ok too.
Yes, • Unfortunately, this means that you will miss some classes at OHS to participate.
Begin researching NOW... • Remember, the early bird gets the worm. • These youngsters will really be excited to be taught by an Octorara High school student.
