 * Preparing Your Classroom Presentation: **
 * 1) Choose **one independent country (no territories)** to present. Four or five countries total will be presented. Email your country right away to Janine Lim at janine.lim@berrienresa.org so she can check for duplicates.
 * 2) In the presentation, give the required clues in your presentation.
 * 3) Prepare a visual to reveal the answer to your presentation (city & country).
 * 4) Make sure all students have paper to take notes on all the presentations. This way if one team figures out a mystery quickly they can help another team.


 * Tips for shorter preparation time:**
 * Have all your sections do the same city/country
 * Use the same visuals (posters/PowerPoint) for all your sections


 * Fast Transitions**
 * Know the schedule and have your students up at the mic ready to go.
 * When you’re about to present, have some kids taking notes and the others getting ready to go.
