I think you have some good work here. Good job on remembering your transitions! I think if you're having trouble thinking about an attention getter you could try and tie it into you clincher at the end, you mention the Texas two-step so maybe make the attention getter also something about Texas since you post is from Seguin. That would help tie the whole presentation up at the end and it would also give you a good transition into stating that this sighting came from Seguin.
ReplyDeleteThe suggestion from Emma is rock solid. You have an intriguing thing going with the Texas two-step, so you should use it to your advantage. Other than that, your outline is structured well and is free-flowing. Great job!
