What are the Different Views in PowerPoint

At the bottom right of the screen, to the left of the Zoom toolbar, you will see three view buttons.  

These are:

• Normal View: This is the main editing view, where you will write and design your presentation. In Normal View, the Slide Pane shows the current slide as it will look during your slide show.
• Slide Sorter View: View of all your slides in thumbnail size.  When you have completed your presentation, the Slide Sorter View makes it easy for you to add, delete, or reorder your slides.  You can also preview your transition and animation effects.
• Reading View: The slide in reading view is shown in full screen, but you will also see the PowerPoint title band at the top of the screen and the PowerPoint status bar and the Windows taskbar displayed at the bottom of the screen. The ribbon and the slides/outline pane are no longer visible.
• Slide Show View: This begins a full-screen slide show, starting with the slide currently selected. Navigate through the slides by hitting the spacebar or arrow keys.
