First they selected a theme and wrote the title. We did the first slide together for the lever. I showed them how to make a picture of a lever using the shapes tool.  For each subsequent slide they wrote the name of the simple machine, a brief description of how it helped make work easier, and added a picture. I showed them 3 ways to add pictures: they could draw it with the shapes, they could use the built-in clip art, or they could search online for a picture.  On the last slide I showed them how they could upload their own picture from Photo Booth. Their final presentations look great! Take a look at a couple of student examples: <a href=\"http:\/\/prezi.com\/nbywzajov-cg\/simple-machines-bygavina\/\">Gavin&#8217;s<\/a> from Ms. Marion&#8217;s class and <a href=\"http:\/\/prezi.com\/dv1aagcn2-vz\/simple-machines-by-omayma\/\">Omayma&#8217;s<\/a> from Ms. Cowart&#8217;s class.
