Christmas Around the World Computer Project

For this project you will use the information you collect for your classroom Christmas project along with additional info and images to create a PowerPoint presentation.

Project requirements:

Your presentation must contain at least 6 slides. Your title slide counts, but "the end" slides and slides with only pictures do not.

You must have at least one slide on:

Food

Traditions

Differences in how Christmas is celebrated in America and in your country

The rest of the slides can be your choice.

Your presentation must contain at least 10 images

Your presentation must contain navigation buttons for use on a Smart Board. You should be able to navigate back and forth on each slide.

Tips:

Animations and transitions are good, but don't over-do it. (animations that are obnoxious or take too long to run should be avoided)

The appearance of your presentation counts. Make it look nice.

Don't plagiarize the work of others. Use your own words.

Don't use small images that look blurry in PowerPoint.

Make sure that you spell check and proofread your slides before turning the project in.

We will turn in our completed Powerpoints at the beginning of class on December 9th and 12th.
