Do you use a lot of PowerPoint presentations and are bored with using the same design all the time? Here are 14 themed backgrounds to bring variety to your presentations. Most of them should also help students with dyslexia who find it easier to read from coloured backgrounds. The themes are mainly the ones covered in language lessons but can be used for a variety of subjects. TES doesn't allow the sharing of Office Themes, so these are saved as presentations. Either use them as they are and add your content or save them as a Office Theme if you want to use them in different presentations. Note: These presentations do not contain any content but are only backgrounds.
