Current Events In The US – ARW

Groups will watch their assigned video and prepare a three minute class presentation on what they learn.

The presentation will include using a poster and have these parts (your spoken presentation can include more information):

* Three most important pieces of information

* A picture that you think helps explain important information

* What you think about the situation and why?

* A question you will ask the audience

Your poster should only have a few words for each part – it’s designed to help your spoken presentation, not to be the entire presentation!
