UGLY Powerpoint Rubric

UGLY Autobiography PowerPoint

Autobiography PowerPoint

PowerPoint is really a great tool to use as an accompaniment to your oral presentation. However, many people believe that PowerPoint is the presentation. Not so.

You are creating a power point about yourself; the uglier, the better.

I am looking for:

Too much text

Too many animations

Too many different transitions

Too busy or glitzy

Has to have:

Information about you on every page

10 Slides, including Title Page ( NO MORE, NO LESS)
The first slide is the Title page, and the last slide is your reference page.

Your writing needs to be correct.

The design of your PowerPoint is where it needs to get ugly.

You will present these to the class. Don’t put anything on there you don’t want to share.

Comic Strip Project - January 30th - February 1st

Comic Strip |  3-4 images

1. Open a new file in Microsoft Word to begin your comic book project.
2. Insert Header (Name, TAB, Period)
3. To create the comic strip template you will use for your images and words; first, draw the squares individually. Use the "Insert" "Shapes" function to draw a box the size you want. Then copy and paste to reproduce the box to form a strip.
4. Insert pictures into your comic strip by placing the cursor in the box where you want the image to appear, then selecting "Insert" and "Picture."

5. Format images so that you can move them anywhere in the box by selecting "In-Front of Text" as the text-wrapping option after you have inserted them into the document.
6. Insert callout boxes using the AutoShape feature to give speech or thought bubbles to the characters in your comic strip. Right-click on the callout to add or edit the text, and resize the callout to fit the amount of text by clicking and dragging a corner of the shape. Click and drag the yellow box on the tip of the callout pointer to match the speech or thought bubble with the appropriate character image.
