Jessica,

I am going to copy your question to the MicroWorlds Forum as others
there may also have suggestions for you.  You can download a trial
version of MicroWorlds from the web site of Logo Computer Systems Inc
(LCSI), the makers of MicroWorlds.  I would recommend your downloading
MicroWorlds Pro.  You can use it for free for 15 days and if you like
it, you can then purchase a copy. I personally love MicroWorlds and have
seen many kids in the OWL after-school program have a great time using
it. The web address to download the software is www.microworlds.com.

Good luck to you.  The slide projects sounds like a good one for
MicroWorlds.  If you get into MicroWorlds you might also enjoy looking
at the MicroWorlds in Action web site which OWL has developed to help
kids and teachers and parents to get new MicroWorlds ideas and to learn
more about MicroWorlds.  

Sincerely,

-Chris
