Is it already July next week? I hope everyone is staying cool and has their summer camp ideas ready. As promised, I finally put together the first (of hopefully many...several...a few??) of a series of tutorials for enhancing PowerPoint presentations to save our students (and ourselves!) from monotony. Your feedback is appreciated as I want to continue preparing ideas and tips that are as clear and concise as possible. Download and read today from the Ideas and Resources page; it's not too late to put your favorite "fart" sounds into your summer camp materials!
NEW GAME UPLOADED
Just a quick note about an update in the Game Room. I finally streamlined and uploaded a classroom favorite - Sentence Puzzle Speed Game. It might be a little difficult to play with the fans on, but my students love the challenge. Great to practice listening, grammar and quick-thinking. Have fun and stay cool!
BACK TO SCHOOL! 
I guess it's back to work at school for many of us who were at the GEPIK PLUS WORKSHOP last week. I hope everyone got some great ideas for your classrooms over the 3 days. (I know I did!) Also met some great people - it was a busy time, so if we didn't have a chance to exchange contact info, please e-mail me what we talked about so we can continue the discussions - I'd love to hear from you! I also uploaded my Powerpointers II PPT file and am working on brief tutorials related to what I covered in the sessions. In addition, I posted a new worksheet for Mr. Bean making a sandwich on the Sound & Vision page. Take care and prepare yourselves for what I think is going to be a scorching summer!
HAPPY SPRUMMER! (did I fall asleep and miss spring???) I think many GEPIKers are at the KSA right about now, getting the Plus Workshop under way. I'll have elective sessions on PowerPoint tips tomorrow, then my main presentation will be on Wednesday morning. Looking forward to seeing all of you there! I've been overwhelmed with preparation lately, but promise to get back to maintaining this site more and uploading stuff here very soon. Have fun...
