5-Minute Presentations

I really enjoyed the 5-minute presentations we did in class last week. I thought it was a nice change from the classroom routine and a chance to learn a little more about each others personalities and interests. If I had to pick one that I enjoyed the most, it would probably be Casey’s presentation on Africa. I have wanted to travel to Africa for awhile now, and Casey’s pictures just made me want to go there even more. Even though Africa is an extremely poor country, it is rich in many other ways, and Casey did a great job of showing this. She spoke highly of the people, culture, traditions and way of life that can be found in the country.

While Casey’s was one of my favorites, I also really enjoyed Lindsey’s presentation on Hershey, Pennsylvania. I visited there with my family when I was very little and even though I don’t remember much of the trip; it still holds a special place in my heart because it was with my family. Lindsey did a great job of promoting the park for a more mature crowd (even though it is also meant it entertain the very young). I thought the chocolate tasting lesson was a really cool idea and I had no idea that it could be so similar to wine tasting.

I thought overall the presentations were a great success and I think we all had a good time doing them.
