If you need to add a slider to your wordpress theme you can do many things. You can hardcode it into your page template, but that's the hard way and not very flexible.
You can make it quickly and easily using the Meta Slider plugin. It's a very well made plugin for Wordpress that let's you easily put a slider into a post, page or even in all your pages if you wish.
The steps to do it are:
1. Download the plugin and install as stated in the link above (check Installation).
2. Activate your plugin in your admin panel.
3. Look to the bottom of the control column, you should see a green button tagged "MetaSlider".
4. Press the "+" sign on top left of the screen to add a new slider.
5. Configure your slider with the images you want to show. Test it before you go to the next step (there is a button to save and test it).
6. Copy the shortcode (in case you want to put it into a post or page in your Wordpress) or the PHP code also provided by the plugin, and paste it where you need it.
7. Enjoy :-D
Hope it helps you!
