This is among the most interesting and original uses for PowerPoint that I have read about.
Jill White, who has finished 10 years of teaching with Memphis City Schools, uses PowerPoint with first graders so that they can add their poetry to PowerPoint slides with a picture. This works great because it’s the first time the children use PowerPoint. So, it’s nice to start with simple stuff. These poetry slides then make great presentations to show at Open Houses, parent meetings, school meetings, and even district-wide meetings.
