Your Own Album & Slideshow & Lesson 4

Once you complete all the instructions from previous blogs, Lesson 2, Lesson 3, the Birthday Party Slideshow and a Slideshow for each of your albums (which should be in their respective folders) in the Source Column you can create your own album and slideshow.

Please select a theme, example: flowers, and download pictures of your theme in iPhoto. You can find pictures in the iLife06 folder in the Server. You can also find pictures of you choice online or bring pictures from home. Create an album with the theme's title and then create a Slideshow with music of your choice. Show the album and the Slideshow to Mrs. Feld. These will count as a Quiz for the First Quarter.

When this is done we can move on to Lesson 4, page 115 "Making a Bound Book." Follow the instructions carefully up to page 136. After creating the textbook exercise you will create a Book with pictures of your choice (examples: Flowers or Cute Animals). Pick a Book Type (example: Contemporary Theme). Enter a title of your choice in your Book Cover. Download pictures (favorite). Enter text if book type allows it. You must have at least 20 pages. When done you will create a PDF document of your book. Check instructions below.

How to convert a a Book into a PDF File: Go to File > Print and then select PDF (bottom left of window). Then select Save as PDF.

You should also start looking at home for pictures of yourself (from baby to now). You will scan them in class and later create a Book with your pictures. You must have at least 10 pages. Convert to PDF. Save in Server under your Digital Applications Folder - under your name.

Any questions? Please ask Mrs. Feld. Thanks for all your cooperation! I appreciate it!
