The slide show is good to discuss what Emojis are and to show some other examples of emojis with varied emotions. I would recommend to show the slide show before the video demonstration. You may choose to have a brief demonstration at the Rainbow Table (Demonstration Table) instead of using the video, as the video is about 9 minutes and will use up a lot of class time.

The Slide Show can be put back on the Smart Board after the Demonstration video to have some examples on the board for the students to reference during the creation of their Emojis.
