Merry Christmas to one and all! Welcome to the Wonderful World of PowerPoint! Last week, you chose a person from Ancient Egypt to research. We'll spend a bit more time researching and then we'll jump right in to PowerPoint. Some things to remember: * Use phrases rather than complete sentences on PowerPoint slides * Three or four phrases per slide is usually a good guide * Use pictures/graphics/clip art/maps to enhance your slides * Choose your background carefully * Choose your font, point size and font color carefully

Use the links below for your ELEVEN PEOPLE project. . . The fifth graders are involved in an on-going biography project titled "Eleven People I'd Like to Meet". This cross-curricular project will last until the Spring, we'll work on it sporadically in the Lab, and it's pretty fun! Ask your fifth grader about it!
