I loved this website and the technology they provide to make slide shows. There are so many cool things that you can do to make our slide show of photos look great. I think this would be a great program to use for PTO night or PTO programs to show parents what you have been doing in class with their children. I also think that it would be great to use with students. I think you could use this to help them upload their pictures into a slide show and present it to the class at the beginning of the year during an all about me unit. It would take time on the teachers part to scan in photos from students but I think the kids would love making it and be proud to share it. To prevent having to put in so many pictures at one time you could also pick a star student of the week and let each student make a slide show as they are picked to be the star student. I could then post it on my class web page or blog so that it could be shared with parents. This is such a cool program and I am so excited to use it in my class. I will have to guide my kindergartners but as long as I am there to help them I think they will enjoy making their own slide show. At the end of the year I could copy all their slide shows onto a disk and it could be their end of the year present!!!! Love this!!! : )
