Presenting Information Clearly

What are we learning today?

You will plan your ideas and tell them in a clear order.

Explanation

• Plan: make a list of your points.
• Put them in order with signal words: first, then, next, finally.
• Use short sentences. Put one idea in each sentence.
• Look at your listeners. Check that they understand.

Examples

1. We'll need to get a passport and a visa first. Then we'll visit the doctor.
2. First, pack the suitcase. Next, check the tickets. Finally, call a taxi.

Remember!

• Do not give points in a random order.
• Do not read only from the paper.

Check yourself

1. Name two words that show order.
2. How many ideas should one sentence have?
