Presentation style - very similar to a Talk About.
Notes - You are expected to make point form notes in your Science notebook.
Cue Card - You need to write your presentation outline out on your cue card. An outline tells you the topics you are going to talk about & the order. You will have room to put some point form notes on the cue card. You may only use 1 cue card. You may use the front & back of the card. You may not write the information out in sentences nor may you read from your cue card. You are expected to know your topic and may use your cue card to remind you about what you will talk about next.
Vocabulary - You need to use specific words that relate to minerals. Use scientific terms such as crystal shape, specific gravity, luster, hardness etc.
Pictures - Find informative pictures in books you are using for research. Identification books are the best because they definitely would have a picture of your mineral. Try to find pictures that show different view of your mineral. During the presentation show these pictures to the class. Tag the pictures with "stickies" beforehand to make finding them easier during your presentation.
