option available in the Presentation Views group on the View tab.

It is the main editing view, which is used to write and design presentation. In Normal View,
you can add text, graphics, sound animation and other effects as well. In this view you can
also have a large view of an individual slide, notes pane at bottom, an outline of slide text
outline tab and slides displayed as thumbnails slides tab all at the same time.

can change the order of slides, copy or delete the slides, add transitions, animation effects,
and set the timings for the slide show

SLIDE SHOW VIEW

It shows all the slides of a presentation starting either from the first slide or the current slide
one after another. One slide occupies the entire screen in this view
