From Unit Plan: Outlining and Delivering an Oral Presentation

I use the activities in these books to support my lessons on expository writing. The reproducible worksheets cover the material I want, and they are already made! They are a gift of teacher time.

The following books are available in the Teacher Store.

I've incorporated the teaching ideas on note taking, outlining, research, and presentations from this great resource. Help your students become better writers by adapting the lessons provided to fit your classroom needs. Be sure to check out the reproducible worksheets.

Some students have it and some students have to work at it, but this resource will empower all of your students with the skills necessary to become effective presenters.
