Getting SMART with your SMART Board
Helpful tips and tricks for using your SMART Board
Don't reinvent the wheel!
As you're discovering the many treasures that your SMART Board has to offer, explore some of these resources for already created content:
- Smart Exchange - Lesson plans and resources for your SMART Board. Search by topic, grade level, content, and even TEKS. Search for "Widgets" to discover a number of tools that can help add interactivity and manage your classroom.
- Gynzy - Interactive whiteboard software on the web that has a number of activities ready to use.
- Modern Chalkboard - a collection of SMART Board Lessons available for download.
- Explore the Gallery within SMART Notebook. The Lesson Activity Toolkit has interactive activities ready to go; you just need to add the content.
Fun Facts and Helpful Hints
- Save your favorite activities and interactive tools to your "My Content" folder for easy access.
- The only thing that erases is digital ink. Text and pictures must be deleted.
- If you don't want students to accidentally move objects, use the drop-down menu to "Lock" the object in place.
- Have a large amount of "ink" to erase? Select the eraser, draw a circle around the "ink" and then tap in the center of the circle.
