Currently our kids are presenting soft news topics, to be taped, in teams of fours. Anyone have other ideas?
Thanks in advance,

How about the standby of making a group poster, presenting to a class as a whole first (by standing in front and each person talking equally), with the audience having a worksheet to be filled in (made by the poster people), and then later showing the posters exhibition style with half of the poster makers circulating to complete their worksheets...?

Of course, you didn't say how much time they have to do this project or what the purpose was...

Good idea! Thanks for the suggestion, Glenski. I especially liked the part about the students producing their own worksheets and then circulating about and helping their peers to complete it. Great idea! Last year they did group posters with team members presenting on foreign countries, perhaps we can incorporate the worksheets into that. In the third year it's a second semester project covering more than a dozen lessons. Students prepare individual presentations and the teacher forms teams towards the end. It's going oh-kay, just wondering if anyone out there has a great idea that the kids would be fired up about. Tall order, I know. Thanks again, Glenski, for taking your time to reply.
Enjoy,
