English for Little Children is a great interactive for English Language Learners or very young children. There are 2 different levels that include activities for learning words in different categories such as animals, the body, school, and many more. Once a category is selected, a series of activities will begin that include learning the words, finding pairs, and matching. Here is a preview of the one of the food activities. Click (or touch) the appropriate picture after the word is spoken aloud. Click the arrow to move to the next activity in the set. Note: This works best when viewed in Internet Explorer.

BGfL.org (Birmingham Grid for Learning) is a fantastic collection of interactive activities based out of the UK for students of all ages that can be used on the SMART Board. From the site:
BGfL provides a wealth of information and activities that are not only educationally sound, engaging and fun, but are also highly focused on appropriate interfaces for each key stage and for teachers.
Here is just one of the many interactives found at BGfL.org called Don’t Use Said (“A great teaching resource for looking at alternatives to the word ‘said’ in written work.”) I could see this being used for a DOL activity on the SMART Board. There are many more, so click here to view additional Primary resources.
One of our third grade teachers, Beth Williams, introduced me to this wonderful site so I thought I’d pass it along to you. Fun4thebrain.com contains lots of games that work well on the SMART Board. The majority are math games, but there are some science, english, and “just for fun” games as well. Here is one of the division games, but there are many more on the website!
