Dear Gary, Anita, List;
As a veteran of a dozen or more meteorite show and tell lectures, some
with powerpoint (some with over a hundred people)....I see a little
twist that distresses me somewhat.....
Gettting directions, or ideas is a grand thing but...you will come
across much more genuinely authentic, and with
your own brand of enthuiasm if you use your own imagination to do a
presentation....
"Tell me how to do a meteorite show"........... huh? How about wit,
humor, enthuiasm, and some specimens..maybe
add a little strewnfield and flight pattern information....pass around
meteorites and meteorwrongs.
Maybe one of the list members could invent a 30 minute video of
professional quality and sell it to those that need presentation
help. Take a class in public speaking then take up meteorite lecturing.
Here's a meteorite, buy Rocks From Space...short and concise lecture
that took 8 seconds... I think I see an ebay add coming soon: How to
conduct a meteorite education lecture....10 hot tips!

Hi Gary:
Could you share the good advice you've already received? We could all
benefit from the shared wisdom of this group, and then we'll know better
what to add.
As far as lasting impressions, I always like to talk about Allende and
how it's "pre-solar system" stuff! Talk about older than dirt...

Subject: [meteorite-list] Elementary school presentation tips?
Hi Everyone,
Ron Wesel has been gracious to offer some samples of NWS to me for a couple
of class
presentations I will make on meteorites this coming month. I've been
reading all the
books and think I know it all now [HA!]
Ron and a few others had some good advice [thanks everyone], but I wonder if
anyone else
can offer me some tips on making a good, lasting impression on 8 year olds.
