POWERPOINT FUN!

This week in technology we learned how to do powerpoints. I am pretty familar with powerpoint, becasue in high school I was the publicist of our dance company so I had to make a power point presentation for our end of the year concert. But here I learned how to add music to the powerpoint I was not able to figure out that in high school, so I was excitred to learn how. I also learned how to hyperlink. This is so cool, if there was a website that I want to look at during my presentation I can just hyperlink it to my page and go right to it from there. This was so nice to learn so that during my presentation, I don't have to click out of the whole thing I can just go right from there. I also learned how to add a graph to the powerpoint. I am so grateful that I learned Excel so that I know exactly what to do with my graph, and then to add it right to my presentation.
This will be such a great tool for me to use in my classroom one day. Just like me I will probabaly have children that are visual learners. I can help them in doing my lessons through a powerpoint presentation. I can have pictures of what we are learning about, and music to go along with the lesson plan. This will help the children to see what we are learning right there in front of them.
I am so glad that I learned how to powerpoint presentation, it will be so great to use in my classroom, even if I have to do a presentation, for the teachers that I am working with it is a great thing to learn.
