Powerpoint Lesson Plans: Many students find traditional English and math exercises boring and dull. I
encourage you to use fun powerpoint activities to bring life to these boring exercises.
I have designed my powerpoint presentations for teachers to be fun and engaging
learning activities. The majority of these powerpoint lessons are presented
in a fun game style format. All of my powerpoint lesson plans require
students to be actively engaged in the activity by having to follow along
by filling in a student response worksheet as students are viewing each slide
in the powerpoint presentation.
I use large animations (graphics that move) that are all related
to one specific theme for each separate powerpoint presentation that I
create. These funny powerpoint presentations
will capture your students' interest with the large animated graphics that
are used throughout the entire slide show.
My powerpoint presentations have been designed using two fonts: Arial
Black and Comic Sans. I chose these fonts because they are the fonts
that are the most widely found on most computers, and they will not
change the style and format of the slides when viewed on your classroom
computer and projector.
I use engaging and funny graphic animations when I am designing my powerpoint
presentations for teachers. I locate colorful background templates for the
lessons that I prepare. I design the entire powerpoint slide show around
one theme or topic (examples: circus, Earth Day, cars, farm animals,
Halloween, winter, spring, etc.)
In addition, I have designed the majority of my educational powerpoint
presentations to contain a fun game style format.
My students actually get excited and cheer when they realize that they
are about to complete a grammar review lesson using a funny powerpoint
presentation game that I have designed.
How often do your students cheer when they have to complete a grammar
review worksheet?
I highly recommend using fun powerpoint presentations in order to
engage your students in learning. Once you have observed your students
engaged and interested in your powerpoint lesson plans, you will want to
continue presenting new lessons to your students using this technology.
The last school that I taught at only had one computer projector for the
entire school. I decided to buy a projector for my classroom to use with my own
students. It was the most worthwhile investment that I ever made using my own
money for my classroom and students. It literally changed the way that
I prepared and delivered my lessons.

I just wanted to take a minute to say THANK YOU for the free downloads that are included in your newsletter Teachers Have Class each month, I look forward to receiving every single issue. I absolutely love your products and what you do. I am so excited to use your resources through my teaching journey. Keep up the awesome work. Happy Holidays!
Your lesson plans for Stellaluna, Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving, and How the Grinch Stole Christmas have saved me so much planning time this year. My Gr. 3 students really enjoyed completing the projects that you designed for each of these books. I was able to create great Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas displays in my classroom this year with their projects. Thanks for sharing your ideas and for saving me time.
My students loved your seasonal powerpoint games for Halloween and Thanksgiving. They thought they were playing a game instead of reviewing grammar ;-) I've already purchased all of your other holiday powerpoint lesson plans. Keep making more of these great activities, more POWER to you Heidi!
I just wanted to say thank you for the most amazing teaching resources that I have ever come across in my thirty years of teaching. I have used many of your book report sets this year and my students absolutely loved them. What was particularly pleasing was seeing some of my reluctant readers (especially the boys) really wanting to read books and complete the activities. Keep up the great work!
I feel so fortunate to have found your website and I have referred several of my co-workers to your website. Just for the month of January, there were three teachers displaying your book reports. I had the trophy reports, my neighbor to the left had the computer reports, and my neighbor to the right had the birthday cake reports. Thank you so very much for all of your work!
I'm writing to tell you that my students just finished the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory group projects. They worked so hard, and the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory projects turned out great! We had them to show for student led conferences. The parents were very impressed, and so were many of the other teachers and my principal. They all commented on my students' work and your creative templates. My students had so much fun doing these projects. I also used the multiplication pizza sticker charts. My students loved those as well!! Thank you so much for all of your amazing products.
I want to write and tell you that I love the resources that you make and share with us, they have truly been helpful to me and my students. I have been teaching grammar rules in a more exciting way, and I owe it all to you. Your grammar powerpoint lessons have been such a blessing! Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for letting me know about the new book report templates. I have been anxiously watching for the house book report project to be posted on your site, so I was excited to be able to purchase it today. It is absolutely adorable. I must tell you that I have received so many compliments from other teachers this year about my students' book reports that I have displayed in our school halls. Thank you again for all of your wonderful ideas....you make my life so much easier as a teacher!
My students are working on their Charlie and Chocolate Factory projects that I bought on your website. One of my students said how nice the other character wheels were and he said, "Besides this is just fun!" Not bad for a third grade boy!!
Just wanted to say thank you so much for your wonderful site and the excellent resources that you provide at such reasonable prices. I purchased and used your lesson plans for the The Giving Tree with my students, and it was a blast. Thanks again!
Simply stated, I LOVE YOUR BOOK REPORT SETS!!!!!!! I'm interested in purchasing them ALL!!!! I've been looking for something like this for quite some time. My students are so excited about reading this year, and it is all because of your fun projects!
I am in awe of what you have accomplished and created for those of us teaching in the public sector. Good for you for taking time off and self publishing. Your enthusiasm is contagious and your generosity is amazing. I recently provided a reading in-service for the K-5 staff at my school. I listed your website as a "must" to visit.
Thanks you for your expertise, creativity, and heartfelt enthusiasm. You are an inspiration to new and veteran teachers and a model for those of us who have not had the guts to go out on our own. You did it!!! I suggest that you go on the speaking circuit and share your knowledge and creativity at the International Reading Association Meetings and the State Reading Associations.
