Google Drive & Digital St. Teresa Activity

      So I just discovered the magic of using Google Slides as interactive digital activities....I know, I'm pretty late to the party, but....how amazing, and user friendly! As a tech lover (for my own fun, not always in the classroom), I can't believe I hadn't tapped into this already. Still on my Mother Teresa kick from her canonization last week, I love the idea of going digital with some activities that are accessible to the kiddos. The fun thing about the current generation of students is that they are just born as digital natives, it's like this oddly natural thing for them that they automatically know what to do. Even the kids who may not have a device for every occasion, or at all, they are still totally comfortable.
       I love this activity because it is short & sweet. Three pages of digital activities, some facts & some reflection.

The google slide interface just makes everything so easy! The background is set, the kids can't move it around. The only place the kids can edit or type are the text boxes. And of course, I love the lego Mother/Saint Teresa! It is a "pixel" style picture so the thumbnail previews on the sidebar don't quite do the actual slide justice.

Enjoy!
