Smart Board Lesson Reflection

I use my Smart Board all of the time and in every subject area. I don't know what I would do without it! We watch videos on it, use it for skills practice and review, and also for assessments. It gives students an opportunity to interact with the content that the white board doesn't allow.

The first item I posted was a math test review. On it, there are a number of questions, or space for questions, that we used to review for a math test. Students are divided into teams and each team works to find the answer to the question displayed. The dice is rolled and the team that appears has the first opportunity to answer the question and earn a point for their team. We call this game "Numbered Heads Together" and it is a class favorite!

The second item I posted was a reading review game. We play this in a similar way to the math review, except the questions are set up using the lesson activity toolkit feature that the Smart Notebook program provides. This is another class favorite when it comes to preparing for our reading tests.

The last item posted is my Friday Journal notebook. Each Friday, students spend about twenty minutes journaling. In the attached file, I have all of the Friday Journal topics that my 3rd graders have or will journal on for the first half of the school year. The journal topics are posted each friday morning on the the Smart Board as students come into the room.
