You Can Do That with PowerPoint?
by Ruth Breindel, Moses Brown School

Breindel provides two sets of step-by-step instructions for creating PowerPoint presentations for use in the Latin classroom. The two instruction sets are excerpts from a larger series she developed for Latin teachers (see below). Breindel uses text and images to instruct Latin teachers on the development of PowerPoint presentations they can use in class to reinforce Latin learning. Instruction sets include step-by-step instructions for inserting clip art, animating objects, inserting text boxes, selecting customer colors for slide backgrounds, and positioning text and images.
