the material.
• Copy any materials you choose to share.
• Organize any “Fun Things” to do or other demonstration teaching
materials you plan to use.
• Invite any other guests who might help
you with the presentation to your parent group
(for example, the school nurse, health educator, doctor, nutritionist, a health
professional from the local
hospital or another parent).
At the start of the Presentation

and why you feel it is important.
