Power Points as an Educational Tool

Power point can be a very powerful tool in the classroom. As a kindergarten teacher I have used power point during curriculum night as a tool for parents to visually see what I am talking about. I also provide them with a curriculum night packet, so the information in my powerpoint is highlighting what is in my packet and it is not repeatative.

With my students I would create a powerpoint presentation for them perhaps in reading or for a math lesson. Using power point in my classroom would definatly look different then in a high school or junior high classroom. Older students would have an opportunity to create their own power point which would be very appropriate for that age group. I think power point is a very useful tool and easy to learn how to use.
