How do you do that?
Students give mini presentations on "How to do something.”
Here are some possible topics:
1. How to start a car
2. How to use a photocopier
3. How to make a cup of tea
4. How to make an omelet
5. How to change a tire
6. How to change baby's nappy
7. How to make a telephone call
8. How to play Golf
9. How to play Cricket
This can be more or less complicated, as the teacher wishes.
It can, for example, be a 4-minute delivery with no visual aids,
or a 15-minute exposé with OHPs and handouts followed by
questions.
Other students in the class may ask questions during and after
the explanation.
