The big idea
Class presentations make most kids nervous. AI helps with everything — outlining, slides, practice questions. The more prepared you are, the less scary it gets.
Some examples

'Suggest 5 slides I should make for this topic.'
'Quiz me on questions someone might ask after my presentation.'
'Help me practice — I will give my presentation, you give feedback.'
Try it!
