Normal ViewThis is the view that you see when you first start PowerPoint and it has thumbnails on the left, the main slide in the middle and a notes area at the bottom.
Outline ViewHere you get to see an outline of the slide structure in the left hand navigation pane, instead of the thumbnails.
Slide SorterSlide Sorter View sets all the slides out on the screen so that you can see how they look as a whole and apply transition effects and design changes to the whole presentation at once.
Notes PageHere you can see just the speaker’s notes with a thumbnail of the slide they belong to.
Reading ViewReading View allows you to view the presentation as if it were being presented.
