This smaller menu allows for much easier navigation and makes your presentation more of the focal point.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5914\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hendersoncountypublicschoolsnc.org\/instructional-technology\/files\/2021\/04\/Slidespresentmodenewmenu.jpg\" alt=\"New Slides Menu\" width=\"418\" height=\"355\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hendersoncountypublicschoolsnc.org\/instructional-technology\/files\/2021\/04\/Slidespresentmodenewmenu.jpg 418w, https:\/\/www.hendersoncountypublicschoolsnc.org\/instructional-technology\/files\/2021\/04\/Slidespresentmodenewmenu-300x255.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 418px) 100vw, 418px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Google Forms: Save Draft<\/h2>\n<p>Soon you will be able to save progress on a Google Form automatically!
