***How To Presentations***
Now it is your turn to be the teacher and teach the class something that you are interested in. I will do a demonstration of a "How To" presentation on Wednesday (I will teach you how to properly shoot a basketball). You are to type up the materials needed and instructions/directions on how to complete whatever task you are teaching us. Your instructions must be in complete sentences. Examples that have been done in the past: how to bake brownies or cookies, how to make a smoothie, how to do a skateboard trick, how to transplant a flower, how to give your dog a bath, etc.
