Thing #10

Create Your Own

Each year my students do a research project on Decades. I would like them to use more technology in their visual products and I think this would be a great way to get them to do that. I used pictures from the 1950s to show how easily my kids could make a slide show. I didn't use the captions, but my students could easily put in information that could add to their presentations. I also love the fact that they can customize it so that all of the slide shows won't necessarily be the same. I can't wait to use this in my classroom next year.
