How to Convert a PowerPoint to Google Slides

If you have a PowerPoint presentation that you downloaded from the Lucky Little Learners Membership Library and want to use it as a Google Slides presentation, here’s a simple step-by-step guide to help you get started:

Step 1: Download the PowerPoint File

First, download the PowerPoint presentation from the Membership Library to your computer. Make sure you know where the file is saved.

Step 2: Open Google Drive

Go to Google Drive and navigate to the folder where you want to store your presentation.

Step 3: Upload the PowerPoint File

• Click on the "New" button located in the upper-left corner of your Google Drive.
• Select "File Upload."
• Find the PowerPoint file you downloaded from your computer and select it to begin the upload.

Step 4: Open the File as Google Slides

• Once the file has finished uploading, locate it in your Google Drive.
• Right-click on the file and choose "Open with," then select "Google Slides."
• The PowerPoint will now open as a Google Slides presentation.

Step 5: Convert to Google Slides Format (Optional)

If you want the presentation to be fully converted into a Google Slides format:

• Click on "File" in the top menu.
• Select "Save as Google Slides."
• This step is optional, but it ensures your file is fully integrated as a Google Slides document without the PowerPoint (.pptx) format.

Step 6: Organize Your Files

Now, you'll have both the original PowerPoint and the new Google Slides version in your Google Drive. You can:

• Delete the original PowerPoint file if you no longer need it.
• Rename the Google Slides file if needed.

By following these steps, you can easily convert and use PowerPoint presentations in Google Slides. We hope this guide helps make your experience seamless!
