- Open the Animations panel: Click the "Animations" tab in the toolbar.
- Choose an animation: Select from the list of animations, including "Entrance," "Emphasis," "Exit," and "Motion Paths."
- Customize the animation: You can adjust the timing, speed, and effect of your animation.

Here are some examples of animations:
- Entrance: Fade in, Fly in, Zoom in

Adding Transitions Between Slides
- Select the slide: Click on the slide you want to add a transition to.
- Open the Transitions panel: Click the "Transitions" tab in the toolbar.
- Choose a transition: Select from a variety of transitions like "Fade," "Push," "Wipe," and "Zoom."
- Customize the transition: Adjust the speed, duration, and effect of the transition.
Here are some examples of transitions:
- Fade: The previous slide gradually fades out as the next slide fades in.
- Push: The previous slide is pushed off-screen as the next slide slides in.
- Wipe: The previous slide is wiped off-screen as the next slide appears.
- Zoom: The previous slide zooms out while the next slide zooms in.
By using a combination of object animations and slide transitions, you can create visually appealing and engaging presentations in Google Slides.
