Learning new things about power point!!

So I am already pretty familiar with power point from doing previous class assignments with the program, but i have begun to see it in a whole new perspective....
In my technology class we have been learning about power point and the different tools you can use to personalize it. From learning this, i have come to realize that these tools will help me a lot as a teacher. At first i didnt think that teaching 2nd grade would really bennifit from this but it actually can. Although i wont be teaching the kids to create their own power point, it will allow me to create lessons on power points showing pictures, graphs, video clips, sounds and a lot more. For example, if i am teaching my class about different animals and the sounds they make and the environment they live in, then i am able to create a power point showing pictures, sound clips and bits of information to visually teach them. I am really excited to be able to show my students fun ways to learn and prepare them for the future!
