     Today, I changed some elements in my summary slide and improved presentation.

Firstly, the picture in ‘’Early life in Kabul’’ slide was the beautiful cities in Afghanistan before. However, I changed it to a photograph of children running kites with sunset on the back. it related more with what I'm planning to talk in presentations, ''Khaled Hosseini's childhood memories of kite running with Shi'a Muslim friends.

Secondly, I practiced the presentation and recorded the time. It took slightly longer than 8 minutes so I would shorten one last thing. For me, it was difficult to keep doing gestures and often ceased when I try to remember what to say. I believe this problem would improve if I can make speech almost unconsciously by practicing.

Conclusively, change in the summary slide probably made its picture more related to the content in The Kite Runner. Moreover, I learned my improvement points and decided to focus more on time management and body language.
