PowerPoint (Terrific)

In my Sedu 183 class we had to create a PowerPoint presentation for any grade level, and teach whatever we wanted. This had to be an indirect lesson as opposed to a direct lesson.  I chose to teach first grade on telling time.  I decided I wanted my PowerPoint presentation to be a class closure.  In my presentation the student had to chose an analog clock or a digital clock.  Which ever one the student chose, the next slide would be either an analog or digital clock.  It would inform the student if they got the correct answer or not.  If they picked the wrong answer it would take them back to the problem and have them try again.  I really enjoyed this project because it pushed me to be creative and produce something that first grade students would enjoy to do.  I thought I knew a lot about PowerPoint before this project, but I learned even more during the process of the presentation.  I used the idea of making a game from Telling time: Human Clock.  I also used Creative Ideas for Teaching Time.  I started off with just having the students just start with hours, and then half hours.  Below, I embedded my narrative for the project, and my PowerPoint Presentation.
