The middle part of a presentation should back up all the claims you made at the start and should clarify your message and develop your arguments. Try to link each of the points you are making so that your presentation moves smoothly from one point to the next. If you feel that some of the points you are making are difficult to understand in words alone, use visual aids to clarify them; this also breaks up the presentation and allows the audience to concentrate on something other than the speaker.
