7 DON’Ts of PowerPoint Reading your text directly from the screen Put an entire paragraph of text on the slide, making it so that anyone in your audience can see word for word exactly what you’re going to stay for the next 10 minutes, and guaranteeing that they’re not going to pay attention to you Have more than 7 lines of text on one slide, so you have to shrink the font to make it fit, and thus make it so that your audience will have to lean in or refer to notes to see what it is that you’ve printed on the page. Better yet, you could copy and paste the entire textbook into PowerPoint, and save yourself awhole bunch of trouble having to refer students back to it.
7 DON’Ts of PowerPoint Annoying transitions - Add a bunch of text to the slide, and make it fly in one character at a time, or do the wave! Add as many sound effects as you can find, especially if they’re not relevant Don’t Use consistent sizes and fonts Forget contrast –use a font color that blends into your background
Knitting and Crocheting • I have been crocheting for about eight years and knitting for about three • I mostly make scarves because I don’t have to worry about size, but I also knit or crochet sweaters, socks, potholders, afghans and other things. • Knitting and crocheting are the best hobbies for me because they are portable and I can fit it in during short periods of time
FUN FACTS ABOUT ME I live in the house I grew up in. I have studied French, Japanese and Spanish. I have had pets all of my life. I won a jump rope contest in kindergarten
Reading • Reading has always been a big part of my life. • I try to read 50 books a year but I don’t always make it! • I love mysteries, history and books about education

If I could go anywhere… If I could visit anywhere in the world, I would like to go to Estonia. Estonia has beautiful castles and scenery. It is known for it many expert knitters who utilize unique to the area patterns and techniques. In the United States, I would love to go to the Olympic Peninsula and see the rainforest. I hope to go there this spring or early summer. How wet can it be?
