- Background and Experience – place an emphasis on pride in self, and school. If you had any obstacles/barriers you had to overcome to get where you are today, please share with the students.
- Set Up & Preparation – event will be held in the large gym-expo style. Each session is 20 minutes- 15 for the presentation and 5 for Q&A. The class size is 15 to 22 students in grades PreK-8. Students will rotate to various speakers every 15-20 minutes. If possible, bring samples of visual aids or tools you use. Children are very visual.
