Lesson Plan

• Demonstrate how to reposition a slide using drag‑and‑drop, keyboard shortcuts, and ribbon commands.
• Delete an unwanted slide safely and recover it using the Undo function.
• Apply best‑practice checks (preview, numbering, saving) before and after slide re‑ordering.

• Computer lab with PowerPoint, LibreOffice Impress or Google Slides installed.
• Projector or large screen for whole‑class demonstration.
• Sample presentation file (10‑12 slides) for practice.
• Printed worksheet with step‑by‑step checklist.
• Sticky notes or index cards for quick exit‑ticket responses.

Begin with a quick poll: “What happens if a slide is out of order?” Connect to students’ recent work on creating presentations. Explain that today they will master moving and deleting slides, and they will be able to reorganise any deck confidently.

1. Do‑Now (5’): Students review their own presentation file and note any slides that feel misplaced.
2. Mini‑lecture & demo (10’): Show slide sorter view; demonstrate drag‑and‑drop, then keyboard shortcuts for PowerPoint, Impress, Google Slides.
3. Guided practice (12’): In pairs, students move three specific slides using each method, checking the vertical line indicator.
4. Deleting slides (8’): Model mouse deletion and ribbon deletion; students delete a non‑essential slide, then use Undo to restore it.
5. Checklist activity (10’): Groups complete the “Summary Checklist” on their worksheet, confirming each step.
6. Formative check (5’): Quick quiz via Kahoot or show‑of‑hands on shortcut keys.

Recap the three ways to move a slide and the safe deletion process. Students write one tip on a sticky note as an exit ticket. For homework, they must rearrange a given slide deck and submit a screenshot of the final order.
