Welcome to 4-H!
4-H is a community of young people learning citizenship,
leadership, and life skills. It is designed to teach life skills
through fun, hands-on activities. Rutherford County 4-H
offers 4-H programs in a school setting.
There are also many other opportunities for
participation in other areas. Many students do not
have the opportunity to participate in a school club. To
make 4-H available to everyone, we offer afterschool,
out-of-school, and summer programs.
The Rutherford County 4-H Office is located at
Lane Agri-Park

4-H Club Officers
Your 4-H Club would not be complete without officers. Good
officers can be a real help to your club. Officers should set a good
example by participating in contests, reminding members of
upcoming 4-H meetings and activities and helping the club
meetings run smoothly. Officers should be elected based on their
ability to do a good job, not popularity.
Officers should take their jobs seriously and do the very best that
they can.

How to Present a Great
Speech.
Voice: Your voice is a great tool in communication. What you have to
say is important so you want the audience to hear you.
1. Speak up – Don’t shout at the audience, but use a “big” voice
2. Speak at a slower pace
3. Work on word pronunciation
4. Be confident
5. Be natural & relaxed
Eye Contact: This can make a huge difference in the audience interest in
what you say.
1. Maintain eye contact with the audience. Focus at looking at the
audience throughout your speech.
2. Try not to stare at an object in the back of the room.
3. Look for your friends in the audience, but don’t forget about
everyone else.
Posture: How you stand during your speech is important. You want to
appear confident & interested in your speech.
1. Stand up tall, hold your notes at chest height, not in front of your
face.
2. You can walk while presenting your speech.
Gestures & Expressions: Expressions are a powerful addition to any
speech. But BEWARE: they can also be a distraction.
1. Use hand gestures that are natural to you.
2. Hold your notes in your hands, but try to avoid “playing” with them.
3. Smile! Look happy & excited about your speech.
Write it out. Don’t read your speech, but do have it written out in front of
you on note cards or on paper. You don’t have to memorize your
speech.
“Ums and Ahs” : Try to avoid using “um” & “ah”. This is best
done by practicing your speech and being sure of what
you’re saying. The more you practice, the better your speech
will be.

4-H Project Demonstrations
For 4th & 5th Grade Members
Join the fun! Share your skills! Presenting a demonstration gives you a
chance to share something you have learned with your class. Be sure
it is a teaching moment.
Guidelines to Follow
1. In a demonstration, you should both show and tell how to do
something. You may also show how to make something or how
something works. Choose a topic that is neither too complicated
nor too simple. All topics must be approved by your teacher.
2. All 4-H members must do individual demonstrations. No partners
allowed.
3. Both posters and project materials (props) should be used in a
demonstration along with the spoken script (speech). Posters are
highly recommended but not required.
4. Do Not use live animals or babies. Do Not use audience
participation. Do Not use videos, DVDs, or power point programs.
Do Not use tri-fold boards instead of posters. Do Not bring any items
that are prohibited at school.
5. Do Not demonstrate volcanoes, “gak” or “goop”, simple
sandwiches, slice and bake cookies, or paper-folding (origami)
crafts. They are too simple or too messy.
6. Your demonstration should be no more than 5 minutes long.
7. A good demonstration has three main parts: Introduction, Body
and Conclusion.
18
Steps in Planning and Giving a Demonstration
1. Planning





Choose one simple idea that you are comfortable teaching
First, plan the Body by listing the steps involved in the demonstration. Write
an explanation to go with each step. Plan how to show each step.
Plan the Conclusion next, restating the main points. Be sure to show the
finished product if you have one and give the source of your information.
Then, plan the Introduction. This should introduce your topic, not you. Select
a catchy title. Think of an opening statement that lets your audience know
what you are demonstrating and the purpose of your presentation.
If your demonstration has a number of steps that require some “waiting
time” in between the steps, plan to bring examples of the project at each
stage in the process. This is often the case with crafts or foods, and will
require more materials. This is how you can show the whole project within the
time limit.
2. Preparation












Make a list of all materials and equipment needed. Gather these supplies.
Make a minimum of 3 posters (Not tri-fold boards) for your demonstration.
(Posters are highly recommended, but not required.)
 Title Poster
 Supplies Poster - or list of ingredients or materials.
 Directions Poster – or steps to follow.
Letters and pictures should be large enough to be seen across the
classroom.
Letters on title posters should be at least 2-3 inches high. Letters on other
posters should be around 1 – 2 inches high.
Block letters are easiest to read. All letters on one poster should be the same
color for ease of reading.
Posters may be on white or colored poster board. Use dark colors on light
backgrounds and light colors on dark backgrounds for contrast.
Here is a website with more great tips for posters.
http://extension.usu.edu/files/publications/publication/4-H_Demonstrations_2008-02pr.pdf
Prepare demonstration according to your plans.
Make sure your information is correct and that you include your source.
Remember time limit: under 5 minutes.
Practice! Practice! Practice!
3. Presentation






Check and re-check to make sure you have everything you need.
Don’t introduce yourself; just start with your topic introduction.
Remember to speak slowly and clearly. Be yourself!
Smile! Look at your audience whenever possible.
Keep your working area neat and clean. Remember to keep all bowls,
boxes, etc. to the side of you and "work" in the center. Have towel ready for
any messes.
Tell your source of information and show a finished product if you have one.
