Click "Insert" from the toolbar, select "Shapes" and click the start burst or whichever shape you prefer.
  Note : Click "More Shapes" for a broader selection of shapes.

The shape should insert on the center of the slide and above an previously added text.
  Note : I added a gold color to the shape. The default is white.

Move the shape away from the existing text so that it is separated.

Right click on the shape and select "Interval"

A tiny clock icon should appear in the lower left hand column of the text box.

When the presentation starts, you should not see the shape because it is now animated.

You can also press the "left arrow" key on the keyboard to start the animation. At which time the shape of the Star burst should fade in.
