Interactive PowerPoint Games Created by ISD Third Graders

The third grade students created interactive games to demonstrate their learning using PowerPoint. After completing the research on the biome and adaptations of a plant of their choice, the students used a story board to write an interactive game. They then transferred the storyboard text into PowerPoint slides and connected these using hyperlinked text, custom  buttons and action settings.  The students then added multimedia to their games, images (citing their sources), custom sound files as well as sounds from the PowerPoint gallery, transition effects and background colors and fill effects. The result is an informative and fun collection of interactive games. Enjoy!
