SMART Board Goodies A Resource Blog by Amber Coggin 

I originally found this wonderful collection of whiteboard resources while browsing some Delicious bookmarks. Then it led me to a post made yesterday on EdGalaxy.com. These resources were compiled by Philip Crammond, and they include some I’ve never seen before. Please browse this fabulous resource! You will find many things that you can use.

Here are two of my favorites:

Letter Formation Writing Repeater- “Write your letter or hand writing pattern, save them and replay them on an IWB. For slow playback you will need to write the word slowly!”

Class Minder: “A digital assistant that keeps an eye on your class on those rare occasions when you have to pop out.” This is hilarious! Give your students a laugh. The “assistant” moves his eyes and makes different facial expressions.

Sadlier-oxford.com offers a wonderful collection of interactive resources for students in grades PreK-6. There are math, vocabulary, phonics, grammar, and reading and writing games. Just click on the tabs and dig around a little. The activities will be found in the “Student” portion of each page. Some of the activities for the lower grades are narrated, including Alphabet Zoo (phonics) which you see below. Please check out this site!
