Power Point Book Report - Atlanta Public Schools



Power Point or Prezi Book Presentations

4th Grade Book Presentation /2nd Quarter

Due: Thursday, December 17, 2015

This quarter, 4th graders will use PowerPoint or Prezi to create their book presentations. Using one of these applications, students will discuss various elements of their Mystery and will rate/ recommend their book selection. Students will be given a PowerPoint/Prezi demonstration in class, and will review an example of a Book Presentation slide show so they will know what they are expected to produce in their own work. In addition, students will be shown how to save their work to a storage device, which will be required for this project.
