Name 3 new things you learned to do in PowerPoint for this project.
 *  For my project I created a powerpoint on a health activity lesson that I could do with a first to third grade class. I picked it because I thought it would be very fun for the students and really interactive. I also love being active and it would give us a change to get up on our feet!
 *  I will use it, as I said, for a physical activity lesson. The students will learn what they need to do to be active and to stay healthy. They will also learn that what they need to do before exercising and also many other fun activities they can do with classmates, family, friends, or even just by themselves.
 *  The benefits of using this powerpoint is that it creates an interactive way of doing a lesson. it also creates easy access to videos and other media that I want to use instead of having to go look them up. It also allows the kids to go back and look at it and use it if they want!
 *  The main thing that I learned that I didn't know is how to hyperlink a slide to another slide which I thought was very cool. Mostly everything else about powerpoint I knew already, but it was fun to practice actually using it in creating a lesson plan that I will use when I teach and get used to making them.
 *  what I thought worked really well was the hyperlink and also the pictures. Technology these days makes it so easy to add media into almost everything, making it easy to put in pictures, music and videos.
 * I think the only part I had a hard time with was when I tried to use an object I had to do a new box to put text in the object. They may have a tool for this but I didn't know about it, but I just had to create a new text box and place it over the object which just took more time.
