Strategies to Inspire Learning & Get the Most out of IWB
1) Convey Content with IWB!
Interactive White Boards allow learning content to be conveyed in many amazing ways. Shine a spotlight on a location of a map, chunk of text, or element of a problem to solve. Slide screen shade line-by-line to reveal text as you read, or highlight words with your finger. Reveal text or images later in a lesson. Magnify to draw attention to specific elements a lesson such as graphs, key words or images.
Dreambox Teacher Tools can be used in blended learning environment for small or whole-group Mathematics instruction and include lesson plan outlines.
2) Search customizeable Notebook files!
By Grade Level, Subject, TX-TEKS or STAAR Readiness Resources!
Join SMART Exchange Community!

Smart Notebook software has such depth of capability that it may be overwhelming. The SMART Exchange helps you to quickly dive in with ready-to-use interactive lesson content. It is a huge searchable community with downloadable SMART notebook files. Once you create an account, you can search by subject area, grade, and by specific TX-TEKS or STAAR Readiness Standards to integrate directly into what you’re teaching. Preview files to see if you like them & download the good ones. You can adapt and tweek them once downloaded. [Majority are no cost]3) SMART Classrooms PD
