2 Hour Presentation Rough Draft

1.       My sponge activity is to talk about the different places a guide dog can go and then have a quick quiz.
2.       Introduce myself and my senior topic. Present my essential question, explain how it addresses official guide dogs and the process that goes behind it to have a guide dog in training achieve its ultimate goal, an official service dog. I will then show a plan of how my presentation will be going for the remainder of the time.
3.        I will discuss what it means to be a guide dog. Then elaborate more on the significance of having an official service dog and the impact it has on the recipient of the dog and how it can change their lives. Then maybe have a recipient of a dog talk about their own personal experience
4.       Temperament, Health, and Training.
5.       Temperament- On paper, I will create an activity that will have the students match dogs breeds with different types of jobs on one side and on the other side have the owners. This activity will demonstrate every dog has different characteristics that might work better for one job more than the others. Health-I will explain three samples of dog food and the ingredients you want in each, then create a jeopardy game based on food and exercise, which equal health. This activity will be educational and demonstrate health is a big part of the dog. Training-I post groups of four, and on two walls I will have four sheets of poster paper posted. Then, I will read off different scenarios of dogs/ Kater misbehaving and what to do when these situations come along and how to come up with a solution and fix it. Finally, each group will nominate one member to share out. This activity will give the students challenges to think beyond their imagination. My challenge will be to use a stopwatch, make sure everybody is on time, and make sure they follow instructions well.
6.       I plan to conclude my two hour presentation by re-stating my essential question and my three answers. I will go over why it is important to ensure and official service dog. Then, I will talk about my best answer which is temperament, my product which is how I realized not to take anything for granted because taking a guide dog everywhere is another responsibility I wouldn’t want to handle.  Discuss my three meaningful sources: service learning, third interview, and The New Knowledge of Dog Behavior.
7.       I plan to decorate the room by filling the room with pictures of guide dogs throughout their stages of life, different types service dogs, and inspirational quotes that were said by people who own an official service dog.
8.       Supplies: laptop, projector, poster paper, pictures, interviewee, activity papers, markers, dog food, jeopardy game, stopwatch, and inspirational quotes.
