What did I think of this PowerPt.?• It was a nice thought to put the picture of

Mary behind her slides, but it was way too dark and much to dark to read the wording.

•Make sure if you use a PowerPt. to check and see if you can read what is written and that it doesn’t just look pretty. The information is much more important.
