  by Brennan

  View PowerPoint

  Brennan, a grade 7 student in Surrey, used some wonderful graphics to create this PowerPoint story called “The Very Spooky Halloween”. He started out by making a story web using his Kidspiration program. Then he wrote the story and added pictures to a PowerPoint presentation. A classmate helped him edit the story. He is going to present it in class when all the scary stories are shared. Great job, Brennan!
