Reminder for tomorrow

1. 3rd period tomorrow will be a project walk through.  My afternoon class will be set up in Steve's class and my morning class in my room.  The Event Planning Committee will walk around and ask you about your project. You'll be able to say your spiel, present it and field questions as well as receive feedback from them.  Be ready to have a tangible draft to show right at the beginning of 3rd period tomorrow.
2. Here is our checklist to be ready for exhibition!
3. Here is the itinerary for our event!

Develop your project Spiel and practice it!

1. What is the most interesting thing you could tell someone about what you learned during this project?  How does this connect to your project?
2. Brainstorm 3-5 questions that you think someone might ask you at exhibition. Write these on the white board!
   
3. Write your "spiel" for what you'll say when people approach you at exhibition! (Event Planning Committee, think about how you'd explain WHAT were doing, WHY we're doing it!
   

How to write your spiel:
NOTE: * AVOID SAYING we're trying to CHANGE people's perceptions. Rather, frame it as trying to create an opportunity to learn about multiple perspectives regarding homelessness and create mutual understanding and respect throughout our community.

1. Name and handshake
2. Project overview (a few sentences!): What you produced, what you are trying to achieve with your project and WHY!
3. ​Most interesting thing you learned during this project and how it connects to your project.

Practice

1. In groups of 3, practice saying your spiel 3 times!  
2. Give each other feedback!  How was the  delivery, tone, volume, eye contact, clarity of message?
3. Ask each other at least 5 questions from the question bank!  Take turns asking/answering.
