Using Prezi to Present Information on the iPad

Prezi is a great presentation tool. Next time you have information that you want to teach to your kids, you may consider using Prezi as your tool to deliver the information. Prezi captures your student’s attention because it jumps from side to side, up and down, zooms in and out, rather than just advancing in a linear motion. There are copyright free pictures that you can search for and use right within the program. You can also search for and embed YouTube videos right into your presentation. Another great feature is the ability to record your voice over each slide. This is especially helpful in Kindergarten and 1st grade as they are still learning to read. By viewing this Prezi on the iPad, the students will click through the presentation and it will automatically read aloud to them, so they can track with the text as it is read aloud. When viewing on the iPad, there is an arrow that appears and prompts the students to click to the next stop in the presentation. Here is an example of a Prezi that I created for Maps & Globes.
