WHAT YOU NEED

• Microsoft PowerPoint (Mac or PC). Apple's Keynote program or Open Office's Impress also will work -- with a few adaptations. Most K-12 classrooms already have access to one of those programs.
• Any drawing program that allows users to save drawings in either .jpg or .bmp format. Don't have a drawing program? No problem! PC users and Mac OS X users can use the freeware program Tux Paint. Educators who have AppleWorks can use it to both draw the images and create the pages for the images. If your school doesn't allow you to install programs and all you have access to is Office, no problem. Drawings can be done in Excel and then copied and pasted into PowerPoint.

That's it! Let's get started!
