SMART Board Goodies A Resource Blog by Amber Coggin 

I guess you can tell I’m really into these word/fridge magnets! I found these while browsing the http://elementary-technology.com blog.  This interactive is offered by MagPo.com (MAGnetic POetry) on their Kids’ Poetry Page. There are several different word kits (or word banks) to choose from, such as the Kids Kit, First Words, Best Friends, and Storymaker. Each kit contains words related to the kit title, and these words can be placed on a variety of backgrounds to create poems, stories, or sentences. The creation can be saved and sent to up to 3 people via e-mail. For more magnets, please see my previous posts. Below is a screenshot of the Kids Kit.

Thanks to @waltonjm for sharing on Twitter these Fridge Letters found at Awenmedia.com. Similar to the Word Magnets I posted about a few days ago, but different in that this is a downloadable file that you will need to install and run from your desktop. It is free, and there is also a few other freebies found on the site.

What an exciting resource to use on the SMART Board! I ran across Word Magnets by Triptico.co.uk while searching through some SMART Board delicious links. Here is the explanation from the site:

Word Magnets will take a piece of text and break it into individual magnets which can be moved around the screen, resized, removed, colour coded, grouped, sorted and so on. New magnets can also be added at any point.

Have fun with this one!

UPDATE: The new multilingual Word Magnets have just been released!
