Electronic White Board Ideas

 

Ideas For Use

 

 

 

Science - creating a diagram of a cell, electrical circuit, water cycle, etc. Create a slide show where each component is added, labeled and put as a separate slide so you can build something in sequential steps. Then save to computer for review or information for kids who were absent or need review. Literacy - Put passage on screen and have kids underline or highlight or mark key information for discussion or better understanding of passages.

Math- Use with TI-86 Virtual Calculator, teaching geometry concepts, calculus, and  unit circle approach to develop trigonometry functions.

Grammar practice: Write words that make a sentence. Scramble the words and have the kids to together the words to make their own sentences. http://www.pershing.k12.nv.us/elementary/SMART.htm

Growing stories: Have students come to the SmartBoard at different times during the day to add an original sentence to a story. You could begin with a prompt or have students begin the story themselves. http://emints.more.net/info/northeast/techtips.html#tip%204

Literacy
Read with the class, drawing attention to key parts from the text. Children can then come up and highlight or underline words in the word and sentence level work. Key phrases, dialogue and the manipulation of text can be used by the children as a board activity or as a follow up in the computer suite.

Write a daily newsletter article with students. We discuss what we learned that day and write a paragraph about it. Students use the on-screen keyboard to help with writing the article. Add digital camera pictures, clipart, etc. At the end of each week, print the newsletter and students take it home. http://www.pershing.k12.nv.us/elementary/SMART.htm
