    "Hello class, im known as chewy ochoa and the topic i will be presnting to you today is paintballing, mainly focusing on how to make a living in the paintballing industry." i will explain the successful mean not just being a player as well as making money. I  will explain why i chose the topic as well as that i will be talking about the history of paintball, how it has evolved and possible career paths in the industry and which one is best.(3) What do you plan to say in your foundation?

    Professional Paintballer, Buisiness owner, and being a paintball documenter (photgrapher/videographer)(5) What activities will you do for each answer and why?
    For my first answer of being a buisness owner i will make students come up with a buisness plan such as who to hire with what skills, what to offer in store, what services and what steps to take to open a paintball business, then actually explain what and how to do. For my second answer of being a pro i will teach different paintball strategies as well as how to handle a paintball gun safely and efficiently.

      It's 1 AM...I can't believe you are making me read a font that small : /

      I'd like a little more detail on your sponge. Is it feasible to teach the whole class at the same time? The visual is a nice idea.

      I need to see your EQ clearly listed for reference.

      So, you are discussing three possible jobs in paintballing? You'll be able to discuss what goes into being a professional paintballer, business owner, and journalist for at least 15 minutes?

      If you do the business plan, you'll need to be very specific? Students will need to demonstrate that they understand what you taught in the activity. I've seen activities like this fall apart if the directions aren't super clear. Another choice, have them evaluate some mock business plans and explain why they think what they do.

      Check with Cortez about the whole paintball gun thing. I know he got a little mad at me when we used those fake guns for Chris's presentation. The ideas are good, but how can students do an activity without breaking school rules?

      What skills are needed to be a documenter? How can they show they understand those. Maybe looking at some videos and pointing out what worked and didn't?

      What is your product?

      What are your sources?
