1.1 - Line Bingo - give each student a strip of 7 boxes and have them cut them out. They make a line of cards (in any order). Using the bigger cards, call out one of the cards. If the students have that card on the outside of their line (far left or far right), they can take that card away. They can only take cards away if they are on the outside. Keep playing until someone gets rid of all their cards. 1.2 - Coin Flick. Students place a coin in the circle and flick it to get it into one of the boxes and then have to say what's inside the box. The student with the most boxes is the winner. Works best as a pair activity.
In the last post, I wrote that you can export the PPTs to make a mp4, but it doesn't work on all computers. Last week, I found out why. It turns out that option is only available if you have a subscription to Office, which your school likely has. If you don't have a subscription, you can't export to make a mp4. I don't think it is fair because I purchased Office for my laptop flat out, but oh well life isn't fair. To get around this, you can make a video of your presentation by recording your screen and then cutting out the begrudging (when you are opening the PPT on your screen) and the end (when you are closing the PPT and stopping the recording on your screen). You have to do this in a quiet setting because it will also record any noise you making while recording the presentation. So you can't sit there have a chat with your coteacher or something because it would also record that! This option also diminishes the quality of the audio from the PPT, but this works if you have no other options!
Another option that I found to convert it to video: If you're working on a Mac, you can just open the PPT in Keynote and convert it there (File --> Export to --> Movie). Keynote doesn't have all the same fonts, but I've only noticed a few appreciable changes in the past weeks, and you can just tweak anything you need before you export it.
Also, the export to video can be finnicky in what kinds of content it allows.Like, I could narrate on top of slides that had video and export those to mp4 with no issue. But slides that had plain audio inserted wouldn't export with the narration. It might've been that the narration and those items were the same type of audio and couldn't be decoded simultaneously.
