It's SPRING!!!
I just love spring time.
Baseball, Track, T-ball and Soccer kids are involved in so many
afterschool activities now a days, it is difficult to keep their attention on
school work. That is where I get a
little sneaky with my SMARTBoard.
I use one of their favorite games on the SMARTBoard to teach
my Math lessons, Koosh Ball. Each
student gets a turn at throwing the Koosh Ball at the SMARTBoard. When the problem pops up the student answers
the question. Then the student or
teacher touches a flower to be linked back to the home page and the next
student can take their turn. Now you may
be thinking, “What does she do with the rest of the class?” Well they all have their white boards at
their desks working the same problems that pop up on the SMARTBoard. If I see a student is not doing the work or
if they need some extra attention from me, they sit at my reading table where I
can keep a closer eye on their work.
Even though I like to use the Koosh Ball game for Math it
can be used for any subject. It makes a
great review game before a test.

Another fun Math activity is Spring Time Number Line. This fun Spring Time Themed SmartBoard lesson teaches the Common Core
Standard for 1st Grade: Add and subtract within 20, demonstrating fluency for
addition and subtraction within 20 using the strategy of a number line to find
the answer to a problem.
