I'm doing something at my daughter's school this coming week. Are there any sunspots visible right now?

Craig,
Looks like just a couple small ones right now.
You can monitor solar activity at the SOHO link below and watch to see if anything develops between now and your presentation. They have daily sunspot shots, and much more.
