PowerPoint

I'd like to share that I used my PowerPoint! I created a PowerPoint on the topic of Day of the Dead, and then posted it to my echalk account. I took my kids to the computer lab (since I don't have a digital projector)the day before Halloween and had them look up my powerpoint and then complete a short webquest. The kids loved it and it was so much better for them to learn by seeing and doing, rather than by listening to me lecture. It freed up enough class time so that we could create our own papel picado (day of the dead craft). The other cool thing is now that I've done all the work, I can use it again next year! Yay for technology! (never thought I'd say that!)
