SOUTH DAKOTA 4-H PUBLIC PRESENTATION GUIDELINES The 4-H Public Presentation Publication Resource can be located at (http://igrow.org/up/resources/01-4000-2014.pdf) Youth should not promote any particular product or brand name during their presentation. Ingredients or supplies should be from original containers or packaging. When this isn't practical (e.g., flour), participants should place the product in labeled clear plastic container. Presentations may have been prepared during the 4-H year and given previously in school, during extracurricular activities or to service organizations; however, youth must alter the presentation to in- clude and relate it to their 4-H projects and/or their 4-H experiences. In their delivery: о 4-H members must use the word "4-H" and state the specific 4-H project or program. о о 4-H members must state how their content teaches the listener or audience about a specific 4-H project(s) or program. EXAMPLES: "I am enrolled in the 4-H Beef Project. Today I will tell you what I learned about proper nutrition for my market steer through my 4-H project work." "Today my illustrated talk on Nutrition Fact or Fiction falls under the Foods and Nutrition Project and the Health Project. I will be sharing with you what I have learned from both of these 4-H Project areas on how good nutrition leads to a healthy life." 4-H Public Presentations are all timed events. In the case the presentation is under the minimum or over the maximum time requirement 3 points will be deducted from the participants score.

It should encourage, excite and motivate curious minds to study the topic further. 4-H members prepare a 3 x 3-foot exhibit to use for accurately explaining a true "why" principle.
