Hi dijobaker,
I just want to say thank you, you have wonderful material- I have just bought a few of your ppt, I am a CPS special ed resource teacher starting my 2nd year, needless to say it has been difficult. I love your work!! I was wondering if you have your work in bundles or a cd I could purchase, I am in the process of downloading them- which is so time consuming, but I will if this is the only way to purchase your material. thanks

First of all, thank you so much for your positive feedback. Also I need to thank YOU for the idea of bundling PPTs on a CD and selling them as a hard good instead of a digital file. I can tailor one for your needs if you want to email me at dijobaker@gmail.com to let me know exactly which ones you are interested in.

Thanks so much for your reply. They are very reasonably priced considering the quality of them. I will definitely be buying some soon and probably more later!

Hi!
I am very interested in several (20 or so) of your powerpoints. Do you offer some type of discount for ordering a large number of products?

Thank you for your interest in my powerpoints. I have bundled some of my activity sheets together that I think teachers would like to have at a discount, but I don't know how I could bundle powerpoints. It would become a very large file, and I doubt I would be able to upload it. Other than bundling items together, I don't know of any other way to provide a discount that's why I try to price them as low as I can considering the many hours I have in each of them. I have had teachers buy as many as 40 of them at one time. I guess this would be a good question to post on the forum to see what veteran sellers have done to provide discounts.
Thanks for getting back to me! Keep up the good work!
I LOVE all of the backgrounds you use in your presentations! Do you get them somewhere, or do you make them yourself? I would love to have some of them!

Thank you, I'm glad you like them! I used to search the internet often for background templates, but they never seemed to be exactly what I had in mind, and the ones included with MS PowerPoint are so business-like. So instead I use a combination of free clip art downloads(including Microsoft). Some I simply stretch and others I add borders, customize the colors, and add clip art that ties in with the skill I am working on.
I don't understand why you don't give a little more info about your products. I don't want to spend $3 on something if I don't know what it is. A preview would be nice too. I teach Kdg, 1st and 2nd grade math, so I'm always looking for new center ideas. Your topics sound interesting, but I will not purchase something without knowing more.

I understand. Again, the majority of my products are power points. My presentations have lots of animation, action buttons, and motion paths to make them as engaging as possible. My goal is to make each concept as vivid and memorable as possible so my students will retain more of what I teach. Telling time is similar to More Practice Telling Time but goes into more detail about the difference between digital and analog clocks and a.m. and p.m. and it also gets into clock fractions (60 min. = whole, 30 min. - 1/2, and 15 min.- 1/4. I promise that once I get everything on here, I will go back and load up some previews. If you have any other questions, please post again or you can email me at dijobaker@gmail.com.
You didn't give any description for this. Is it a game, or a power point presentation or what?? Also, a free preview would be nice.
I also noticed that my previous question about your probability practice (same concern: too little info and no preview) doesn't have a complete answer for me. Can you address both concerns please.
Thanks.

Hi BZ, Sorry about the last question. I hit a wrong button or something. I'm glad you posted again because I had no other way to contact you. Probability Practice is a power point presentation. It has several slides devoted to modeling probability as well as provides practice for your students. I spend many hours creating power points. I try to make them captivating as well as informative for my students. I've been teaching elementary school for almost tens years now, and I have created 100's of power points. Just a month ago I stumbled across this site. I've been trying to upload my presentations, and it is simply quicker to add thumbprints. I will try to work on previews once I get all my products uploaded. More practice telling time is also a power point. It is interactive and students either read the time or fill in the hands on the clock (would need whiteboard for this feature).
You didn't give much info and no preview. I would be interested in seeing a preview of the ppt.

Oh, I just posted this one today, and I was unable to get any thumbprints to come up. It seems like the thumbprint feature only works occasionally. I will add them as soon as I am able. It is a 17-slide power point. It is very colorful and interactive and
