SMART BOARD
We have a Smart Board in our room! A smart board is like a big computer on a big screen. It allows the students to be more interactive in the lessons during class. We have already completed a graphic organizer on the smart board using our novel The Landry News. We have also used a virtual fractions on a math website. The Smart Board is very cool and so much fun!!
