Teaching with Smartboard Episode #45 Smartboard Revolution, the Dream Classroom and Connect 4

In the first part of this screencast we cover the Smartboard Revolution Site.  It is an excellent resource for smartboard users.  Secondly, we are asking for your input at the site voicethread.com in helping us design the ultimate high school classroom design.  We have our layout for what we think would work; however, we would like you to comment on what you think would be the best ideas for the DREAM CLASSROOM.  Lastly a listener Sue McKay gave us a listener called connect 4.

Teaching with Smartboard Episode #44 Language Arts Smartboard Lessons (template S)

Template S Ordering Sounds

This is our last of 3 weeks covering English Lessons.  Today we talk about a auditory lesson involving sentence sorting.  Students are given a few shapes which when clicked give a sentence from a paragraph.  Then the student has to put that shape into the order that they think best.  Eventually the order of the paragraph will shake out.  We cover how to make this lesson using Audacity.  This lesson idea transfers to other subjects.
