Using+the+smartboard+for+middle+school+math

Presenter: Sara Mallett, Middle School Math Teacher School: [|The Hewitt School]


 * Description:** In this day and age technology is not so much as a past time for our students as it is a way of life. With students who spend their free time connecting to their friends via laptops and iphones or blackberries, it make sense to be able to connect their familiarity with technology to their experience in school. Using the Smartboard to teach math not only helps to create engaging lessons but it also helps us to easily reach all types of learners. My presentation will show how to construct a lesson using the smartboard technology, access information from the web and use it to build effective lessons. In addition I will demonstrate the construction of a math lesson using this. This workshop will be for users who are looking to convert their classrooms or lessons to the smartboard.

When it comes to creating lessons for the smart board there is no reason to reinvent the wheel! Here are some helpful sites:
