For a while now I have been collecting ideas on different ways of using PowerPoint in a classroom.  One that I didn’t know about was using PowerPoint as a brochure. It works extremely well. I set about trying it out in a Grade 5 classroom.  The Grade 5s were learning about heritage sites in South Africa and were busy with a project involving a heritage trail. I set a task on creating a PowerPoint brochure illustrating a site they would love to visit. 

I gave them a template idea but they had to change it into what they would like, with their choice of fonts and headings.They really enjoyed doing all of this using PowerPoint.
