The Power of Talkies (Talking PowerPoints)

The PowerPoint I created is intended for students transitioning into adulthood, ages 18-22. It can also be presented to the general population of adults with developmental and/or physical disabilities. The presentation can be used to support a unit or lessons on self advocacy. Self advocacy is an important element of learning vocational and life skills in order to succeed and thrive as an adult.

Talking PowerPoints can be created and used in a various ways in your classroom.
I recently spoke to a colleague who frequently uses them with her reading program. She said, "The kids get so excited about the stories I've created using this resource and it motivates them to read. I love them."

Here are a couple links on creative uses for PowerPoints how to create your own Talking PowerPoint:
