Jane's comments on organization:
(transcription)

Jane Krauss (JK): So, it was their job to work as a group to put a presentation together and they had to divide up the work in a way that each kid was responsible for telling about a state and a city and a state.

Boy 1: First you will be going to Arizona and Utah. But at the last part of the trip, you'll be going to Hawaii.

Boy 2: Alaska is so big, you can fit twelve states the size of New York into it.

(JK): Everybody had lots of information and it was almost more difficult to filter out what was irrelevant than it was to, you know, and to get down to kind of the heart of the matter than it was to, ah, get enough, certainly.

Girl 1: The entertainment will cost five hundred ninety-three dollars. But don't forget you're going to the happiest place in the world: Disneyland. Transportation will cost one thousand five hundred twenty-five dollars and fifty cents.

(JK): They had an outline that they could follow that...that...that helped them move through the speech, making sure there was a clear introduction and then the body of the speech had nice transitions within in using words like "first" and "next" and "finally" and just those kind of phrases that glue the body of the speech together. And then trying to punch up the ending, you know, with a nice conclusion.

Girl 1: The first night in Lexington, you'll check into the Sheriton Suites.

Boy 3: On the third day, we're going to have you visit the Statue of Liberty on Ellis Island.

Girl 1: Only for a mere one hundred seventy-two dollars.

Boy 1: Thank you for using the "Everywhere You Want to Be Travel Agency".

(JK): So that helped them with the organization. I think most kids had a fairly good organized speech.
