AP Spanish® students will love this presentational speaking project for Unit 4, Science and Technology! The project contains specific directions, a rubric, teacher notes, a graphic organizer, an example presentation and a participation chart. The oral presentation is designed to be motivating, interesting and fun to students- both as presenters and as members of the audience! This project is fully customizable so that teachers can make adjustments to ensure that this project is just right for their students! It can be assigned digitally or printed.

Science has made some pretty big advances in recent times. Many people know a little something about cloned animals or genetically altered food. This project allows the members of your class to choose a current and interesting scientific advance, research it to understand both the basics and the details, to understand the benefits and drawbacks of the advance and teach the other members of their class about the topic! Included in this project are teacher notes where there are multiple suggestions for how to engage students both during their research and during their classmates' presentations. In person, we use the Smartboard to present the visuals. If you have a large class and prefer not to have all groups present live, students can record themselves presenting. Then, use one class period for students to view the presentations of others.

This project is INCLUDED in the FULL UNIT 4 Lesson plans. You can find the entire 6 week lesson plan unit linked below!
