Unfortunately, you can't "lock" items on the slide masters.
But if you want to do a File/Save As with a blank slide (just the master
itmes on it, no additional text or anything) and choose PNG or JPG from
the "as type" dropdown, you can reinsert that PNG or JPG into your
master as the slide background. Because it's an image, the items on it
will be effectively "locked."

> Hi! My Grade Threes are doing a project in the computer lab using Powerpoint. The Grade Three teachers have already created the slides and layouts on each slide for the students to use and add information to. Is there a way for us to lock the layouts so that students can not erase or change the layout of each slide but still be able to add information and pictures. We are finding that the students are accidently or otherwise changing/erasing the layouts we want them to use and we are spending all our time going around and setting the slides back up to how we want them.
