Any advice? What activity is good to use for an oral presentation in class? ?

Im doing a project for geography. It for high school. %26amp; part of my project is an oral presentation in front of the class. I need to do something creative about child labor and sweatshops so our presentation isnt so boring like just talking bout the issue. we can do a game. but i dont know any that we can do.. we need something to do for the class to get involved, so they can understand what we are trying to explain... any ideas or suggestions?

off the top of my head, a game you could try to get the class involved would be Dumb Charades.


fill a bowl with folded paper that has various activities that little children are involved in - 'child labor', as well as normal child activities [playing, studying...].


you can divide the class into 2 groups. have a person come up %26amp; pick a chit %26amp; act it out in front of the group.


there are 2 things that the group has to answer -


what is the activity being performed [enacted]?


and is it legal for that age group?


thus, you will be doing many things at a time - not just speaking/focusing on child labor, but also the positive alternatives....





make word games such as - crossword , word search , complete the word , ... using terms, concepts, clues, scenarios from your presentation.





create anecdotal stories about fictitious children who are working in diff fields. leave the story incomplete - ask the class to complete it or give alternatives %26amp; solutions -- again, constructivism %26amp; positivism by placing ';oneself in others' shoes ';.


have a few humorous ones too.





hope this inspires more ideas
