Elementary Sites

Hello My Elementary Friends! Never let it be said I play favorites, this posting is just for YOU! These are just a few sites that are wonderful to use with your SMART Board. Build Your Wild Self this site is from the NY Zoos and Aquariums. Each student can create an “avatar” of themselves that can be saved in your content by using your Screen Capture tool to capture the image and can be used for various activities using the SMART Board. The Magic Gopher is a fun math site for your students to try and figure out how the Gopher guesses the number they have chosen every time. The Circle Fraction Tool and The Rectangle Fraction Tool are excellent tools when teaching fractions. I recommend using your Screen Capture tool in Notebook to capture the images of the fractions during your lesson. Learn Your Times Table is another excellent math site for teaching multiplication in a fun challenging way. Finally, Scholastic Whiteboard Lessons is a site from Scholastic full of interesting lessons and ideas in every subject area. Check out the Character Scrapbook, this is another site that your Screen Capture tool will come in handy. ~Diane
