Animal(s) were colored with crayons and markers, labeled and a nice background was included. 

I presented my farm animal poster with my buddies

I fidgeted and did not address all the information on the poster. 

I talked quite a bit, but skipped around the information, confusing my farm buddies. 

I spoke clearly and provided information about all the animals researched and allowed buddies to ask questions.
