Your grade results from the following categories:
Visuals/Graphics: Props are expected! A map of your country with weather signs on it is required. Ask me for overhead transparencies to do your props if you like, or use a poster board. (Be reasonable in your time use. Use more time pronouncing and saying correct sentences than making art!) Creativity makes this fun for the class, for you and for the teacher!
Delivery: pronunciation, speed, eye contact. You can read off of a paper, but eye contact will get you more points. Memorizing gets the expressions off of the paper and into your head.
Enthusiasm: This is your attitude. It is very evident to everyone. More good attitude= more fun for everyone.
Time: You have 1 to 1.5 minutes to complete your report.
Participation: You will listen to others and take notes as well. A completed "papel de comentarios de escuchar" will get you 10 participation points for the day.
