DUPLICATING SLIDES

You now have two slides; a title slide and a slide that reads, You have 10 minutes left. But that's not enough. You need a total of ten slides that read You have 10 minutes left. To create those slides:

  • Click the slide that reads, You have 10 minutes left.
  • Click Insert in the menu bar and select Duplicate Slide.
  • Repeat the previous step eight times. You now have 11 slides; a title slide and ten slides that reads, You have 10 minutes left.
  • Click Slide 3 and change the numeral 10 to 9.
  • Click Slide 4 and change the numeral 10 to 8.
  • Continue changing the numerals on the remaining slides, each time decreasing the number of minutes left by one. (On the final slide, be sure to delete the "s," so the text reads, You have 1 minute left.
  • Click Insert>New Slide to create a new slide.
  • Type Time's Up! You also can add a task you want them to do, such as Pencils down! or Look at Mr. Smith.
  • Save your work.

Next: Add slide transitions.
