PowerPoint

Today's assignment was to create a PowerPoint that address one or more problematic content standards or topics in my teaching field.  I created an account with Dropbox, and placed my presentation in to my public folder, inside the Dropbox icon on my computer. I had to use Jing to capture my picture.

I taught English self-contained and collaborate.  My students were visual learners.  Each week I distributed a vocabulary list.  Students created flashcards.  I utilized PowerPoints as a visual learning review before vocabulary quizzes.  Each slide contained a part of the speech, picture, and definition. I enjoyed the creativity of making PowerPoints. As the students got comfortable with my PowerPoints, they created their own PowerPoints and presented to the class.  This helped strengthen their oral presentation skills.  Click on the link to view my Powerpoint presentation http://dl.dropbox.com/u/109186781/Lesson%202%20Vocab%20Review.ppt
