• Make sure Ms. Mitchell can EASILY read what I’ve written (pictures and colors aren’t making it confusing to read)
• I have included a REASON WHY I appreciate the item listed (not just a list of miscellaneous things)
• I have slide numbers showing on each slide• I have pictures on most of my slides• I have a color background on all my slides (I
get to choose any background I want)• 2nd time it’s graded: I have some animations on
my slides
Each time you turn your GL in…Ms. Mitchell will check to make sure you’ve completed the correct number of slides. She won’t read all of them.
Some of the things typed on your GL are private and you might not want someone else to read them.
You will rearrange the slides and put your best 3 at the front of your slide show for Ms. Mitchell to grade. Each slide is worth 5 points.
Now let’s look at some examples.
