making a PowerPoint

PowerPoint Project
For my PowerPoint, I decided to begin a series of presentations on the parts of speech. My students are just beginning to get into this in English, and I’m having them construct a flipbook to keep in their wrting folder this year. Instead of writing everything on the board, I can use this. Then I can show this on the board and allow students to use the clicker to advance it while completing notes.
I have never created a genuine presentation of my own before. I’ve altered many canned presentations from staff developments, but never my own. I found it very user friendly, and the smart graphics options really give the slides some visual interest. It didn’t take that long to create it either, so I’m going to work on a chapter three one tomorrow night.I was worried when saving it however. I always save Word documents as a 97-03 document, so it can be opened by others who may not have Vista, but when I went to save my PowerPoint as a 97-03 it told me that by doing so I may have a few slides which would not work. So, I saved it as a regular PP presentation.
