The students in grades 3-6 in our school all have Chromebooks, and the teachers are encouraged to use Google Classroom with their students. In library class, we like to use Google Slides a lot as a repository and showcase of student learning. For that reason, I was drawn to the link in this lesson for "Adding Audio Files to Google Drive." That link took me to YouTube and more related videos on the topic. I found "Narration Over Google Slides" which shows how to use Snagit to narrate a Google Slides presentation. I had to use some work-arounds, but here's the end product and the steps I took:
The downside to this method is that I couldn't get Snagit to just capture the presentation. The video image shows my browser windows and the slides navigation bar.

I wish google slides would just come up with a way to add audio. It's something that so many people want! Good work on this one!

Thanks for these links! I tried Screencastify and really liked it. It let me record just the Google Slides presentation and saved directly to my Google Drive. Like the tools option, too. Only drawback is a small watermark on the free version. Also looked at Nimbus, but videos cannot be sent to YouTube or Google Drive which is a big drawback.
