Beginner lesson

Lead with your main point, then give up to three supporting reasons — the Pyramid Principle.

  1. Say your main point in one sentence.
  2. Give up to three reasons.
  3. Add one example.
  4. End by restating the point.
Worked example: 'We should plant trees at school. They give shade, clean air and a place to learn. Our old tree cools the whole yard.'
