Ideas:
There are many ways to teach Social
Studies/Science using PowerPoint.
One idea: If you are going on a field trip,
try and get some disposable digital cameras
for the students to use on the field trip.
When you get back load all the pictures
onto a computer so students can access
them on any computer.
Con’t.
Have students access the pictures to make
a slide show off their favourite part of the
field trip, organize the pictures in
chronological order/ alphabetical order.
If it was a field trip to the zoo they could
put the pictures of the animals in
geographical order, order by size, what
they eat, sleeping patterns, etc.
Con’t.
A teacher could get students to bring in
digital pictures of their summer vacation
and put them on a computer so all students
could access them.
Put the students in groups and have them
sort the pictures by location, province,
country, alphabetical order, favourite
places, etc. and develop a PowerPoint
presentation
Con’t.
Some other idea to use PowerPoint to teach
Social Studies are:
Time line
Matching
Concept development or categories
Sequecing
Choices
Con’t.
Exploration of a topic
Cause and effect slides

We hope that you now have a better
understanding of the many ways
PowerPoint can be used when teaching
Social Studies/Science.
Here is a PowerPoint I put together to
illustrate to students one way they might
construct a PowerPoint.
