Photo Story

It’s another oldie but a goodie.  At school this last week had our Christmas show.  We had the nativity story for the Key Stage 1 performance and a play called Santa’s On Strike for our Key Stage 2 performance.  It was great fun.  We took quite a few pictures of the night and then the next day I asked some of my class to turn the photos into a slideshow.

We used Photo Story 3 from Microsoft which is very easy to use and creates a quick but decent looking slideshow.  It’s free too which is great!  While some of the photos were a little out of focus (bad stage lighting!) I think the finished effect of the slideshow is excellent.  A very simple process for the children in my Year 2 class and they saw the results posted on the school website.
