The BBC has a wonderful interactive site called The Magic Key based on the Oxford Reading Tree learning program. The site contains nine literacy “adventures” for children that all work great with the SMARTBoard Interactive Whiteboard.
This is a wonderful interactive lesson that reviews the different types of adjectives and then allows students to check their understanding by taking a quiz or playing a game. The activity works great on a SMART Board, especially when displayed in full screen mode.
The graphics and audio on these activities are very professional and all the activities were developed with interactive whiteboards in mind so they all work great with the SMART Board. Student feedback is also very stimulating.
Can a SMART Board interactive whiteboard assist in early childhood literacy? Here’s a great article from the electronic journal Reading Online that touches directly on that subject. The article was written by Pamala Solvie.
