Grade 2 - Lesson 4

Create a PowerPoint™ (or

another applications’) presentation

(less than 5 slides) from template

1. Using a pre-made template,

such as the one shown,

students can include their

text.

2. Pre-planning is a must to

make this a successful

project. If you have the title,

text and images already in

draft form, and any images

needed saved in a folder, the

assembly of the presentation

will flow smoothly, limiting

the amount of assistance

students will need.

3. Using the OCR Camouflage Unit as an example, students can prepare a

draft for each type of camouflage they which to describe, or type of

animal that uses camouflage, and how it uses it to its benefit. The title

for a slide could be “Walking Stick”, the text could be the description of

the animal and its use of camouflage, and the image could be one either

that the student drew and saved using KidPix, or some other graphics

program, or an image the student found on line.

4. When multiple slides are used, students can create slide transitions, as

described in the previous lesson.
