- Good example of what can be done with a PowerPoint

I have my students create children’s stories for ages 4-8. They must create a main character using the drawing tools. For more advanced groups I have them create interactive children’s stories where they use hyperlinks and the child can choose between different endings to the story. I’ve even had my high school students present them to our local grade school students. Everyone loves this assignment! ~ New Holstein High School

 Fennimore High School consists of grades 7-12.Each fall we have a 7th grade orientation.Part of the orientation is a slide show of the previous 7th graders--what classes they took and teachers, activities, candids, etc.Each student in my current computer apps class puts together a 7th grade slide show along with music.Each PowerPoint is shown to the computer class, and we vote on which best depicts life as a 7th grader.The 'winner' has the option to attend the orientation in the fall and show his/her slide show; if they choose not to attend, I show it but give them credit.It works out great. ~ Fennimore High School
