Digital Story


Create a Free Slideshow




This slideshow displays several different types of flowers. I would use this in an elementary science classroom when discussing how plants have adapted to their environments. For instance, The flat shaped flowers with wide petals have evolved as such so as to provide a landing pad for insects that can spread pollen. The spherically shaped flowers are also usually very sticky so that insects that fly around these plants pick up pollen easily.
This tool was very simple, but did not allow for much manipulation of the final product. I would have enjoyed to be able to change the amount of time on each photo and include narration alongside.

  1. That is a great idea to use this in a science classroom. I also thought that it would be convenient to slow the pictures down. You could also maybe use this slide show during a relaxing time.
