Nichole Walters, Erin Kolb, Krissy Liles, and I will present our group presentation on May 12, 2011. The topic for our presentation is Oak Grove Lower Elementary. During our presentation, eight main points will be discussed. A powerpoint presentation will be shown from my computer, so the class will be able to follow along with us. The sample outline of our presentation is the following:
(First speaker: Krissy Liles – Introduction and Oak Grove Facts) First, she will discuss that our topic is Oak Grove Lower Elementary, and we chose it as our topic because three of our group members are education majors. Second, she will state the facts about Oak Grove. Krissy might say that Oak Grove Lower is a part of the Lamar County School District, and she will give the mission statement of Lamar County schools. Also, she will state that there are over eighty positions at Oak Grove Lower who teach over nine hundred children. Other important facts she might state would be their colors of black and gold and their mascot, which is the warriors. Pictures will be shown in the powerpoint as a visual aid to show what the school and other areas at the school looks like.
(Second speaker: Erin Kolb – Reason for scrapbook and the subjects) First, Erin will explain that we chose to make the scrapbook to demonstrate the six different subjects that are taught at Oak Grove Lower. Earlier in our presentation, we had planned to make a popup book. Throughout the presentation we discovered that making a scrapbook would be less difficult. As she is speaking, she will show the pages in the book that we created, which includes the language page, music page, art page, science page, health page, and math page. Also, she will state that the scrapbook will be placed in one of the second grade teacher’s room as a “keep sake” for future teachers and students to view.
(Third speaker: Nichole Walters – T-shirt design and the Pow Wow Day) Pictures of the front and the back of the shirt will be shown in the powerpoint presentation as a visual aid to show what the shirt looks like. First, she will state the color of the shirt is gold with black writing to represent the colors of Oak Grove. Also, she will state that the back of the shirt has balls from multiple sports on it to represent the different games played at the Pow Wow Day. Next, she will say that the shirt promotes the Pow Wow Day held at Oak Grove. The Pow Wow day will be held on May 13, and it is similar to a field day held at other schools. During the event, students will be able to participate in individual and group events. She may give a few examples of the games that will be played at the Pow Wow Day.
(Fourth speaker: Brittney Ainsworth – Podcast and the Acorn Run) First, I will state that we created a radio podcast that promotes the Acorn Run at Oak Grove Lower Elementary. The podcast that we recorded will then be played from my computer for the class to listen to. Second, I will state that the Acorn Run is a 5K run that will take place on April 30. The purpose of the Acorn Run is to promote healthy living to the faculty, students, parents, and other members in the community. I will state that anyone at Oak Grove and in the community is eligible to run in the race. Pictures of the Acorn Run will be shown in the powerpoint presentation as a visual aid. Also, I will state that in conjunction with the Acorn Run, the Dragonfly Festival and Carnival will be held. At the festival, shopping, food, and carnival activities will take place, and the proceeds will benefit Oak Grove Lower Elementary.
