Where is the best place to start when you create a set of note cards for an oral presentation? the script you wrote
the outline for your speech
direct quotes from sources
your examples and definitions

Its varies from person to person, find out what works for you/your level of comfort when presenting. I recommend writting it exactly how you want to say it and structure it like an essay [Intro, evidance & source, counter argument, evidance & source, conclusion] I am a freshman in highschool so the standards might be different if you're older but if you structure your notes like an essay with less words the presentation will be clear and cut which is good. I'm sure you'll do great, good luck (:

1. the details that would clarify the authors purpose for writing would be after the "haley collected used soccer jersey and sent them to guatemalan children." part, he would say, "and you can also donate today to save ". so far in the text, you can see no such thing. if, near the end the author persuades you to donate to guatemalans, then you know that the author's reason to write is to persuade you.

2. what details would make the text more engaging is to see the guatemalan children's reaction to getting free jerseys.

3. the details that convey the author's attitude would be an opinion by the author, for example, if he said, "haley was a very nice girl " or, you can find the attitude by finding parts of haley's personality that he highlights. you can strengthen your tones by using more descriptive words, and simplify long sentences as much as you can.

you're welcome ; p

they would have to clean it very clean
