Big News for secondary math teachers! SMARTtech is planning for math-specific support designed for middle and high school math teachers. SMART Notebook math will be integrated with SMART Technologies’ award-winning SMART Notebook software. It will give you an enhanced set of tools that will allow you to create and explore math concepts, all within the same application. You can sign up and SMART will let you know when the BETA program is available to try at home.

Hi All~
I have been traveling to all the elementary schools these last few weeks and have had the pleasure of meeting with so many of you. The work I see being done out there with the SMART Board is unbelievable! I have added a few new sites to our SMART Sites library. Special thanks to the teachers who shared these links with me when I visited their school. Please note I have added a link to download the LESSON ACTIVITY TOOLKIT and to download Notebook software 9.7. Have a good weekend and try and stay warm!
