I started creating slideshows a while back for my myspace page. I was a myspace user for a while and used it more frequently than Facebook because it allowed these types of visual effects along with fun backgrounds and music. I wanted my class blog to be similar to a myspace page because it's fun and appealing, in my opinion. I have used Slide and Rock You before to create slide shows, but the site I have been using most lately is Smilebox . It has tons of different applications available from simple to super cutesy. It also allows you to add different music styles to accompany your show. If you are not familiar with this site, please check it out. It's definitely worth it.

I like how you used your slide show to teach about peanuts, and how they grow. It was fun and informative! Plus, you can use it with George Washington Carver AND plants! And we're doing both soon!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Smilebox link, I will definitely have to check them out. I like how you did the growth of peanuts, like Rachel said. It ties in with both plants and George Washington Carver.
