Nothing was really outstanding for me as an English, so I took the easy route and decided to look at the PPT for Shapes. I thought it was SO MUCH FUN!!! I loved how colorful and interactive it was. And the activities at the end were great. I think it gives a variety of fun with color, sound, and obviously shape, so kids would really enjoy it. And it forces higher level thinking by allowing them to complete the sequence by themselves, and create their own. I thought it was superb!
After that I was in an elementary kind of mood so I checked out the reading PPT on colors. I thought it was kind of slow, but I guess if your audience in pre-school or kindergarten, it wouldn't be so bad. It was really colrful, and a great idea, but...... what do you do if you have a student who is colorblind?? Trust me, it happens. How ould you teach a colorblind student this same lesson, if they can't distinguish the colors on the slides?
Also, a few webquests just turned me off because of the background that they chose. This disappointed me because I really liked some of them. But any photos or anything that were hyperlinked didn't work. If something was hard to read, or figure out how to use, or if links didn't work, I just wasn't interested. So after awhile, I just gave up.

Hi Leslie,
Thanks for your honesty. Yeah, I agree that the YOUNG PPT are usually fun and interesting. Now, you mentioned that you didn't see any webquest. This is probably the BEST to view, and it was not on the computer because it is a hyperlink. And, I forgot to put it in as a result. Well, here it is Banned Books and More
