2The final stage
So if you feel you can remember the Spanish you
are now at the stage of trying to make sure you
remember your presentation in the order that you
prepared it. There is not point putting all that
effort into learning the Spanish if you then
throw it away because you cant remember the
order and then it doesnt make logical sense or
you suddenly remember at the end that you forgot
a sentence at the beginning. How annoying would
that be!? To combat this problem many people
make a cue card if they have to deliver a speech.
It is not common to have a cue card for writing
because you have more time to think about what
you want to write. A cue is something that helps
to jog someones memory. When rehearsing for a
play there is often someone there with the script
to remind an actor if (s)he forgets his/her
lines. They might prompt them with the first
couple of words for example.

5MFL Cue card Some tips!
- Dont write out every word that is not a cue
card! - Dont have pictures that you struggle to know
what they represent. - Dont have more pictures/words than you are
allowed.
- Do spend time on this stage it is the last
vital stage - Do keep it simple.
- Do practise your presentation with your cue card
a number of times - Do get someone to listen to you giving your
presentation using only your cue card.
