What is a 4-H Presentation?
A presentation is a method used to communicate an idea by showing and/or telling. It can be a demonstration or a talk that uses posters and other visual aids.
A 4-H Presentation helps you learn to:
- Research a subject
- Organize ideas in a logical order
- Be a teacher and practice public speaking skills.
Placer County Presentation Day will be patterned after the format for the 4-H Sectional and State Presentation Days. You can download the 4-H Presentation Manual, version #3 or Community Club Leaders and Presentation Project Leaders will have a copy and more copies can be obtained at the 4-H office. This guide is a great resource of information!
Primary age members are welsome to participate at county level for a non-competitive experience. Qualifying members (4th grade and above) can move on to Sectional Competition (date TBA) and California State Presentation Day on May 29, 2010.
Presentation Formats: consult the 4-H Presentation Manual, version #3 for descriptions of each format.

To have a successful presentation it must contain the following:
- An introduction—it should briefly cover what is to be shown or told.
- A body—it should illustrate the subject logically and clearly.
- A summary—it should reiterate what has been said so that the audience takes away the main idea.
