partner you can discover to make your slides more informative and interesting. Use the organizer to keep on track. http://www.bermudarailway.net/now/oldtrailsite/oldtrailsite.html First you must identify the location of the scene in the picture. Where is it? Then add information about these scenes using your own words. Think who, what, where, when, why, how.

2. Once the content is completed, you can add graphics and effects to enhance your slides. Save your work with your name.

3. To share your presentation, decide on a script that you will use to describe your pictures and help people learn more about the Bermuda Railway. Be prepared to answer questions following the presentation.
