Thanksgiving Stories Using PowerPoint Story Writing Templates

Wednesday November 19, 2008
Powerpoint story templatesStory writing is a skill that begins in the earliest elementary grades. Why not make it a fun experience for kids?

I have created blank story templates to download, for students to create simple stories. Clip art and pictures are added to the upper part of the slide, which tells the story. The lower portion is the area for the students to build their writing skills to reflect the pictures above. Older grades can go further by adding sounds and animations to their stories.

Sample stories have been created for you to download as well. These simple stories will help you integrate literacy and technology into your classroom -- and -- all the while the kids are having fun while they learn.
