Jeopardy-Power Point Game and Review
Here is my Jeopardy Power Point. I uploaded it from goggle documents after I loaded it to my desktop. For some reason I couldn't get it to save as a document on my computer. I made the necessary changes to Dr. Pierce's Jeopardy game and then put in my answers and questions I made up from my Power Point entitled, "Difficulties Children with Autism Face Every Day."
I have also linked my Review for Jeopardy game below:

Difficulties Children with Autism Face Every Day-Power Point
I was finally able to get help with uploading my Power Point to my blog. One of the reasons I couldn't upload it before was because the file was too big. I had added audio to my power point to make it nicer, but it made it too big to download.

Power Point Presentation-2
I downloaded my power point presentation to Dr. Pierce through his g-mail account, as he suggested in his e-mail today. I was unable to post it directly to my blog last night, when I finished it.
I enjoyed presenting my Shirley Temple Biography podcast to a third grade class today. Their teacher used her biography to introduce the new unit in they will begin next week on Women's History. Several of the girls had seen a least one of Shirley Temple's movies, and they all seem to have fun listening to the song at the beginning and end of the podcast. I briefly explained how I had made the podcast and had used You Tube to find the music for the podcast. They were excited to listen to some of Shirley Temple's music on their teacher's record player, as I left my Shirley Temple Album in their class.

Difficulties Children with Autism Face Every Day-Power Point
I used the Microsoft Power Point program on my computer to make my power point presentation. I added pictures from Clip Art and I used the audio narration from the power point program. Then I saved it as a 97-2003 file. I have discussed this presentation with the Librarian at my Elementary School and I will be presenting it to the fifth graders as a demonstration of types of programs and software that is available to use for assignments and to teach the students about children with Autism. I will also be submitting it to my professor for my Introduction to Autism class, in hopes that my fellow students can use it to teach their students about Autism.

Shirley Temple Biography
I used Audacity to create my podcast. I then converted the file using LAME (After much frustration, I figured it out several hours later!) to an .mp3 format. I then created an account on podbean to upload my podcast and created a player to add to visual appeal. Below are my lesson plans script and matching activity for the 3rd grade class I will present it to.

Podcast - Shirley Temple Biography
I have been working on this podcast since Sunday and have put Way, Way, Way beyond 14 hours on it. My computer had issues with all the new programs I've added for this class and the sound kept going in and out on me. After I spend over an hour with HP getting the sound reloaded, then I could begin my podcast again. I spend many hours learning how to use Audacity, how to record the music, how to fade it in and out, how to record the lesson and then fade the music back in. When I tried to download the podcast tonight, it didn't work. I waited for over an hour for it to download, tried several things suggested, but nothing worked. I had completed all the lesson plans, script, and a hand-out to use with the third grade class before I even began the podcast, so I would have it all ready to do the word for word script. Now, at 10:21,I'm brain dead and my documents aren't downloading. I'm not sure if its another issue with my computer or what So I'm quitting for the night, as its 10:22 and I'm still recovering from the bad flu bug that's hit my school so hard, so I'll work 9n it tomorrow.
