School Presentation 1
Jan Latta and endangered animals
K – Y4 duration 45 minutes
I have a power point presentation with 100 photographs
of animals I’ve photographed in the wild. The show
starts with the Big Five of Africa, then some entertaining
animals, finishing with endangered animals. Students are
spellbound by the presentation and there is question
time after the show.
Y5 – 8 duration 60 minutes
I talk about coming face-to-face with mountain gorillas
in Africa and how the idea for the series of books was
created. Then a power point presentation showing 100
photographs of animals in the wild and I talk about some
of my adventures. Then question time.
REQUIREMENTS
The library or hall needs to be darkened to show the
power point presentation. I have both Mac and PC disks
but need to borrow the school’s projector and computor.
I have a portable microphone. (Sydney only)
