How to Make a Good Introduction:
Learn the proper procedure for introducing yourself to someone. Be sure to think about how you could extend the conversation with some light "talking points." Practice with a partner to see how well you do. You will be making a "real" introduction to a professional for a grade. Remember, you can only make a first impression once.

Your "first impression" will be judged on the following:


 * 1) Professional Attire
 * 2) Eye Contact
 * 3) Content of introduction
 * 4) Firm handshake

=Introduction Poster for Your Site School: Due Oct. 4 =

Make a good introduction to your field site class by presenting information that they want to know about you. Prepare a poster that includes the information below. You will be using your poster on your first visit to your field site.


 * Your name and an appropriate picture of you
 * The high school you attend
 * Your activities in and out of high school
 * Your interests
 * Your favorite grade in school
 * A picture of you in the grade of your field site or your favorite grade - if available
 * You may include additional items, but keep the poster tasteful, professional, and uncluttered.



The poster should be prepared using the computer to word process your materials. Then print and cut. Sloppy hand drawn letters or designs will not be acceptable. Neat workmanship is a must. Remember, this will give your field site teacher insight into the quality of work you do. It will also be shared with your new classroom of students, so make a good impression on them.
