I love my
Smartboard! The students do as
well. I thing I do with my smartboard is
a formative assessment using something I call Math 2 Win (M2W). M2W is a way I have my students practice
prerequisite skills as well as current skills we are working on. I put one multiple choice question on a
notebook screen. The students write the
question, any graphics associated with the question, and the correct answer in
their M2W journal. After selecting the
correct answer, the students use the Senteo Response System to record their
answer choice. After all students are
through making a selection, I stop the session and we discuss the student
answer choices and a circle graph that displays their choice (a little data
analysis going on). This helps me decide
whether the all of the students are understanding what we are talking
about. I do this at the beginning of
class since it also helps the students settle down quickly after changing
classes.
My kiddos love our smartboard too! Sometimes I have them use index cards when the technology isn't being friendly :)
