12. This project was extremely fun for me. I had
quite a few “a-ha” moments. During my
research I learned a few facts about animals in
Yellowstone. I was a little nervous beginning
this project, but I was able to figure out how to
create a non-linear Power Point. I learned how
to insert links and I learned how to add Clip
Art, for the very first time! Power Point is a
fun way of teaching something,
and I am sure I will use it in my
classroom when I begin teaching.
