To the Student

Each daily Lesson begins with a question. This isn’t a trick question—you can’t study for this question—but you do have to think about it before you answer. The more you think, write or talk about your answer, the more relevant the material will become, the more interested you will be in what you are about to learn, and the better you will be able to understand and apply what you are about to learn.

Lesson 177

The Visual Aid

What makes an effective visual aid? What might be a good choice for your particular speech? You should have your informative speech prepared and ready to be presented. In this Lesson, you will learn how to create a visual aid that you will use to supplement your informative speech. It is important to select a visual aid that will add to your informative speech, but not take away from the words and message you are presenting. There are several possibilities that you could choose:

SA

Slideshow presentation—You want would to use slideshow software to create a slide show illustrating your main points of your speech, but it would not be a good idea to write the entire speech on the slides of the show. You could also use this slide show to present digital images, charts, tables, or other illustrations in color and clearly so that your audience can see what you are talking about from a different vantage point.

M

Story board—You could create a story board using a science fair-like presentation board in which you map out chronologically the main points of your speech as well as pictures and images that correspond to your topic. The main purpose of a story board is to give your audience an overview of your presentation.

PL

Poster—Depending upon your topic, you may choose to simply use some form of artwork to create a poster illustrating either your topic in general or again, the main points that you cover in your speech. A poster should be colorful, pleasing to the eye, creative, and include pictures that attract the audience to your presentation.

E

Movie clip—If you have the resources, you may be able to show a movie or television clip related to your topic, although the clip should be short, and you should make sure to reference the clip immediately after showing it so that you prove its relevance to your audience. The possibilities for visual aids are many, but it is important to follow several guidelines when using them: Always use images that are understandable and visible to everyone watching you—images in a slideshow presentation should be large and obvious. You might use smaller images on a poster or story board, however, because the audience members would most likely come up to view these visual aids after a presentation has been made. Make sure that every image or piece of information is specifically about your subject area and what you talk about in the speech.

10-15

STUDENT MANUAL

LANGUAGE ARTS—LESSON 177—2

Use visual aids in moderation. The visual aid should not attract your audience’s eyes away from you or their attention away from what you are speaking about. The aid should help reinforce your topic clearly. Create your own visual aid for your presentation. You should begin by drawing or sketching out what you would like the visual aid to look like. You should also use the time to search the Internet for pictures to use on the visual aid. Be creative but neat, and remember to only include your thesis and main points on the visual aid… not every little detail or example that you will present. You want audience members to become interested in what you will be saying from the visual aid, but not to get every piece of information from the visual aid. They will not effectively listen to your presentation if this occurs. Lesson Wrap-Up: You should work on your visual aid during the remainder of the time period, and will be given the time in Lesson 178 to do so as well.

The Visual Aid

What would be a dynamite visual aid to go along with my speech? In the last Lesson, you began working on your visual aid for your informative speech.

Speech Practice

What are you the most confident about when it comes to presenting your speech? What are you most nervous about? The next Lesson is the final Lesson of 6th grade Language Arts which you will give your oral presentation reflecting back upon what you have learned this year. You will need much practice to be confident in your ability to give this presentation, so this class period is designed to give you the time to complete this preparation.

SA

You should practice using your visual aid with the informative speech that you are giving, and if you need a computer or overhead projector, make sure that it is working. Refer back to the Lesson notes on “Speaking and Listening” for reminders of the guidelines for the oral presentation, as well as tips on how to be an effective speaker. The guidelines for oral presentations are given in Lesson 169. Lesson Wrap-Up: You will want to practice your oral presentation by speaking it aloud. Practicing in front of a mirror or a friend or family member is a good idea. It will help you grow comfortable with your material and the situation.

The Final Oral Presentation

In this Lesson, you will be giving your final oral presentation. This consists of an informative speech with the topic: “My 6th Grade Year in Language Arts.” The speech should answer the following questions: What do you feel is the most important Language Arts concept you learned this year and why? What do you believe was your best piece of writing and why? How do you feel you have grown as a student and why?

SA

Hopefully this speech will have given you the opportunity to reflect back upon all you have read, written, and learned throughout this year to see that you have grown much as a student and in your knowledge of the English Language Arts. Remember to smile, to do your best, and to look your audience members in the eye. Lesson Wrap-Up: Practice giving a “30 second pitch” of the speech you have given.
