Question:I'm in a class where we have to do a 60-90 second "presentation" about something interesting, but it has to have a visual component and a vocal component (so I have to do something with my body, not just stand there and talk). It also has to have a clear beginning, a middle, and a clear ending. I have NO CLUE what to do! I can't sing or dance. Any suggestions?

He said a good example was when someone lifted a chair on the tip of his finger and talked about something.

hula hoops!
you can talk about the history of the hula hoop and how they were a huge fad in the 1950s in the US

The history of the chicken dance.

a mime who quits being a mime but has to overcome various mime obstales that he set for his or her self in their "miming days. i.e. getting stuck in their box ect. *E.Rigby

If you could have a table or desk in front of you, you could build a house of cards and just talk about why people build them. That would satisfy the beginning and middle, and for the end you could just blow the whole thing down!

Here are some photos to get you started:

Give a presentation on Air Travel, while folding a paper Air Plane. When your done, toss it, if it flies across the room GREAT! If not, say " that's why I don't like to fly". Good luck!
