TechnoAnimal

Students continue to follow step by step instructions to make the next two slides. The Appearance slide contains the picture that the students made in Paint.

Primary students learn how to insert a picture onto a slide. Next, they write descriptive facts about the animal, with the focus placed on the connection between the appearance of the animal and how these qualities help it survive.

The Food slide contains written facts about what the animal eats. In this activity, students learn the new skill of searching for and inserting clip art.

The final two slides of the six slide report are completed in this session. On the Baby slide, primary students write their research about the animal’s young, prompted by leading questions. They insert the saved picture from the first session. Students review and practice learned PowerPoint skills to create the Threats slide.

The finishing touches are put on the animal presentation. PowerPoint lesson plans explain how to:

• spell check
• apply and format transitions
• set the show to play automatically
