Presentations

Once again, I must say.....Google Docs (and presentations) Rock. I made my very own presentation which you can check out:

If I can do this, anyone can!! Google makes it so very simple to do a presentation....of course, the Atomic Learning helps as well. I love the different presentation themes and layouts that are easy to choose from but make the presentation more appealing. I also thought the sharing feature of Google Presentations is awesome. You can share a presentation from "the cloud" with whomever you wish! By emailing the presentation for others to view, it saves so much time. And if you're working together on a presentation, then the editing and revisions would be much easier. This would definitely be a useful tool in the classroom. Not only for teaching and instruction, but also for students to learn and engage in the technologies it offers.

I looked at two different lesson plans listed: Language Arts, Choose your own adventure story and Book Buddies. I really liked how the Book Buddies lesson had older students working with younger ones to make a presentation. And I thought the use of the presentation to do the "Choose your own adventure" was smart and fun.

I will definitely be using Google Docs, Presentations and Forms in my classroom. Yay Google.
