Powerpoint

This week in technology, we started making Powerpoint presentations. We have read many Flat Stanley books where he goes to many different places in the world. Since the children are only in first grade and don't have the skills to do this presentation indepedently, we work in the technology lab and create pages together. I model how to make the page on the SmartBoard and the children follow my directions to create their own similar slides. This has been a great opportunity for the class since they will be using Powerpoint in second grade. It is a nice introduction and it has been very engaging for our Social Studies/Technology lessons.
