Project #4
Power Point Project

        For this project, I created a virtual field trip using Power Point.  The idea of the virtual field trip was to give the students the experience of visiting a place that they might not otherwise have been able to visit due to lack of funding or for other reasons.  To complete this project I had to do extensive research on the internet to find age appropriate sites and information for the project.  Although this project was time consuming, it is a very valuable resource for the classroom.  I think that Power Point will be something I use frequently in the classroom if the technology is available.  Power Point enables us as teachers to differentiate our instruction and offer students a more experiential way to learn.  It is a good program to use for virtual field trips, for students to make presentations for their parent teacher conferences, and for any other presentations to the class, parents, teachers or principal.
