These materials were designed to support you in planning, preparing for and delivering your lesson. Deciding which to use—whether all of them or a few—is entirely up to you. Consider the length of time you have, your audience, and the type of engagement you would like to have with participants (lecture vs. workshop).

Presentations

The presentations visually guide your participants through the lesson topic. The first document shows the complete lesson, while the rest of the documents are the individual lessons saved separately, in case you do not have a lot of time or only want to focus on a single topic.
