                          CREATING A NEW PRESENTATION


                 A presentation is a collection of various slides. When you first start PowerPoint, the program
                 automatically starts a new presentation for you and names it as ‘Presentation 1’.

                 To create a new presentation, open PowerPoint 2010 and click on the Blank Presentation
                 option in the backstage view.

                 A new presentation opens with a blank slide with two
                 placeholders which is called the Title slide. We use the                    To insert a new slide:
                 Title slide to add an introduction to our presentation.

                 Let us create a presentation on the topic, ‘Our Environment’.            Short key  Ctrl  +  M
