http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/How-to-open-and-use-Prezi
The most important part is after you save the prezi, extract all. You must leave all parts of the prezi together in one file. For instance you cannot take the prezi icon out of the file and drag onto your desktop. Then just open the red prezi icon and it's ready to go.
Let me know if you have any other issues.

Thank you very much. While I don't think I will use all of it at once, I will definitely use some of the sheets to get to know my new Year 7 students at the start of the school year.

The extraction program asks for a password when trying to run the file. Looks promising, but I can't open it.
April 8, 2013

There should be no password. Are you sure this isn't a glitch with your computer settings?

Wonderful job. I couldn't use the materials because 1) my school's technology is not up to speed; and 2) the videos do not include captions for deaf teachers and students. :-(

Your product is visually appealing. I'm not sure if I will be able to use the videos in the Prezi with lower middle grades students.

Really wonderful job! I teach 3rd grade and often our resources are so lacking in real world examples. 3rd graders have emotions too, and the videos will be powerful for them to see that it's okay to use those emotions in their work.

The Prezis are awesome! I was only able to open them by copying and pasting the link, though. The pdf documents are great literacy strategies, as well. I used the Character Analysis Chart and did my own vocabulary activities with the suggested words. Thank you for the excellent lesson plans!

So disappointed! I cannot get any of the prezis to open, nor can I use the invitations because the program it was created on is not compatible on my mac.

Teaching Generation Next (TpT Seller)
Can you tell me what problems you are having? If you send you email I will send the invitation in a PDF format, but you will not be able to edit it. Here are the links to the Prezis until we can figure out why they aren't working for you. Make sure you do not separate items out of the folder. Example, you can't drag the prezi icon onto your desktop.

It was very hard to follow. The Prezi that compared the text to Disney was not complete because the video only had the credits on it. I would like my money back
December 6, 2012

I'm not sure what happened to the video.
This was a two week unit with lots of handouts and materials. The video that did not work for you was a two minute video.

I always like to plan extra in case we move through info quickly. Better to be over prepared than under. This is a week week unit. Some days might take a little longer and some less. We all have our own pacing in the classroom, but it should end up to be about two weeks in the end.

Tyler Gellinger re: Imagery- Poetry for the 21st Century Learner
Yes, thank you! I bought both this and the personification prezi. The personification prezi works great. I open it up, click on the file, and it is good to go. For some reason, on this file, it says it needs to be extracted in order for it to run. I am befuddled by it. Thanks again. I appreciate it.
April 17, 2013
Teaching Generation Next (TpT Seller)
Hit extract all. It just means there are lots of pieces. It will all stay in the same file
April 17, 2013
Tyler Gellinger re: Imagery- Poetry for the 21st Century Learner
I am not computer illiterate, but I cannot, for the life of me, get this file to open. Is there any way I can get a direct link? Thank you!
April 16, 2013
Teaching Generation Next (TpT Seller)
Sure I'll add one here. When you open the downloaded files do not separate. For instance you cannot drag the prezi icon to your desktop. I know that was a mistake I made the first time I downloaded one.
Here you go.

April 8, 2013
Teaching Generation Next (TpT Seller)
Sorry, I didn't respond sooner. I'm on spring break. When you open the file leave everything together as one file. Don't drag the Prezi icon to your desktop. If that doesn't work let me know. I can give you a direct link.

Teaching Generation Next (TpT Seller)
Keep all 3 items from prezi in folder you can't drag the Prezi icon to your desktop. Then open the file that says prezi.
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
