When you are presenting or teaching to a group with the help of Google Slides, it is always best to allow a time and place in your presentation for some interactivity. Most of the time, people leave the presentation and go to an external website (or even their phones) to start a countdown timer while this interactivity takes place. To make the presentation more seamless, it’s much easier to just embed a countdown timer directly into your slides by using Youtube. On the slide with the instructions for the group discussion or activity, just go to Insert >Video and search YouTube for “__ minute timer.” There are lots of timers on YouTube for just about every time interval that you might need. This would also be a great way to manage stations in your classroom, with instructions on the same slide as the timer. I hope this helps with engagement and classroom management!

The purpose of writing the articles is to give the readers something fresh to read and to promote their Internet business. When it comes to SEO articles, the best way to get them is write the articles yourself.
