A fun and engaging way to help students learn important facts! This is a colourful PowerPoint template that you can edit with important facts that students need to know using the theme of ‘Snapchat’. Snapchat is an app many young people are familiar with which allows them to view an image for a specified number of seconds. Similarly, this PowerPoint template will show a slide for 10 seconds with a fact and image of your choice. After they have viewed all the facts (you can edit the number), they have 60 seconds to write down what they can remember. No pens allowed while the facts are been shown on screen! A nice, quick and engaging way of introducing new concepts and key information to students. It could also be used as a good revision activity. Suitable for a variety of subjects.
