Teachers Job I will Split you up into groups of six. That way we will only have four groups presenting.

When we finish our group project we will present them to the class in a Power Point Presentation. I will put the presentation together on the computer, but you will have to tell me what to put on your slides, what colors you want to use for the background and what color letters you want to use.
