Kim, PLEASE share your websites to download the software. We are in the process of submitting a grant for smartboards, but in the meantime, we can use our computers to put lessons on our tv monitors in our rooms. I am thinking about using the SMB to model writing lessons, journaling, etc. Thanks, Janet -------Original Message------- From: kimberlee hannan Date: 7/4/2007 5:23:59 PM To: A list for improving literacy with focus on middle grades. Subject: Re: [LIT] Smart Board and Language Arts I adored my SMB, but when I changed schools I had to leave it. Now I just use the software, which is free to download. Anything you can do on a regular board, overhead, or computer you can do on Smartboard. Think of it as a huge computer monitor with touchscreen. On top of that, you can show videos, change handwriting into font, and save and print notes, websites, and .charts. You can even record your mini-lessons and your voice to replay for kids who need more than one expose or absent kids. I'll look up my sites. There are tons of them. Folks in England use a lot of excell to make up lessons. Kim On 7/4/07, ncteach <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Everyone, > > I am moving to 6th grade Language Arts this coming year.
