Smartboard Activities

When using a smartboard for the first time there are some things to know. If you are an elementary teacher who wants to put a quick activity together for the kids right before they get there, its easy. You already have pre-made activities that are in smartboard. All you have to do is plug in the information and you have what you need. You can use the activities to make games or to teach a lesson. It's a really fun way to have the kids interact and get the information that they need to know stuck in their little brains.

SMARTBOARDS are Smart

A smartboard has many different tools and features. These tools and features can be used in a Elementary classroom to do activities and be able to interact more with your students. In smartboard you can change the written text on the board to typed text so that the students can read it better or if you are going to give the pages as handouts they will be able to comprehend it. In smartboard there is a set background fill that a teacher can use to fill in with bright colors or pictures to the background. The shape pen was my favorite out of all the tools on the smartboard. It makes perfect shapes and the teacher can make any of the shapes any color that he or she wants to make them. It makes the task of shape drawing easier for the teacher and for the student if the student is also using the tool.
