Smartboard Activities for Math

If you have access to a Smartboard or other brand of interactive whiteboard, you don't have to spend hours creating activities. Here are some other options:

• Use activities already created specifically for the Smartboard and posted on the internet.
• Find internet sites that have interactive math activities and games. These work perfect on a Smartboard.
• Find math templates (number lines, coordinate grids, clocks, thermometers, place value charts, ect ) online that can be used as a starting point for a great Smartboard lesson.

Here are some links to help you get started but searching with GOOGLE will uncover many more. Leave a comment here if you have a great site for Smartboard activities.
