READ & WATCH

Read:

When you make a presentation, you can add pictures, hyperlinks, and change the text to make your slideshow more exciting.  Watch the videos to learn how.  

Sometimes PowerPoint does not have the images that you want.  You can find images on the internet, but it is important to use images that you have permission to use.  Pixabay Links to an external site. is a website with free images that you can use; you do not need permission to use the images on Pixabay (except for the top row). 

This week, you will work with a group to make a presentation in class.  You can use Pixabay to find the images for your slides.

DO

Read:

Go to www.pixabay.com Links to an external site. and practice searching for images.  You can type any word in the search box and look for an image.  For example, you can search for school, computer, coffee, or anything you like.  You can also try to find images of places and services in the community.  For example, you can search for bank, neighborhood, or bus station.

You do not need to save images right now.  This search is only for practice.  You will search for images again in class.
