Hi Everyone,

I am in the process of researching and learning about Smartboard. I am  
curious to learn about how any of you have incorporated it into your  
reading instruction or seen it incorporated. I am specifically  
interested in learning about how Smartboard is used to promote  
comprehension.

Last year, I saw a fourth grade teacher incorporate Smartboard in her  
literacy centers. The students were divided into three groups, each of  
which had a ?teacher of the week.? When the students arrived at the  
Smartboard station, the ?teacher? led the discussion on sort words  
with prefixes and suffixes. There were several prefixes and suffixes  
at the bottom page, and the students had to match a root word to the  
correct prefix of suffix. For example, ?complete? was a root word and  
the students decided that it would go under the ?in? prefix column  
rather than the ?un? column.

I know that Smartboard can be used for just about anything, but I  
would love to learn about what any of you have found to be successful  
or not worth trying. I plan on creating several lessons that can  
potentially be used in the classroom.

Thanks!
Christine
