- I've been a first grade teacher for 13 years, and the lucky "owner" of a SMART board for 4. I've recently expanded my tech-horizons, joining Twitter, creating a classroom blog and weekly wiki newsletter, so joining a Ning community was, I suppose, the next step! I'm looking forward to connecting with others who are exploring the possibilities of the SMART board!
