English Reflection
Presentaion by:
- Omar
 -Youssef
 - Rashed

Presentation Subject: Fencing

In the beginning Rashid greeted the classmates and introduced his partners; he began discussing his presentation with an appropriate use of eye contact and language. The subject of the presentation was about fencing the sport of nobles; he described in detail the 3 types of fencing which are: epee, foil, and sabre; the next item he discussed was clothing & equipment; he gave us an example of clothes and different types of equipment that are used.

Omar began his presentation with appropriate body language and he spoke with confidence; he discussed how the player achieves points; he explained briefly how the game is played, Youssef the 3rd partner explained the history of fencing, fencing in the UAE; he discussed the first achievement of the UAE which was in the Arab League Tournament. He showed us pictures of world champions fencing; it could be clearly seen that Youssef had prepared well for the presentation.

Finally, it was in an interesting & enjoyable subject for me and for the audience; Abdulla asked at what age a person could play fencing; he was answered clearly by Omar that at any age a person could practice. Hedley asked if it is an expensive game and if it is sponsored by the government. Youssef answered yes, it is an expensive game and it is sponsored by the government. In general, the partners prepared well for the presentation but there was a spelling mistake revealed by Hedley.
