SMARTBOARD

Our Smartboard has been installed in the library! Teachers are invited to come and test it anytime.

The board opens possibilities for adding interactivity to lessons and presentations and it only takes minutes to learn how to get started.  Here is a two minute SMART Technologies training video showing the very first steps:



Teachers can check our First Class staff mail conference, in the library file, for a link to my bookmarks for locating a wide variety of resources shared by teachers for teachers. By starting with pre-made resources we will all have opportunities to experiment and learn how to create our own lessons and activities. Students will now also be able to use SMART notebook software to create powerful presentations!
