Jim Hollis' "Teachers Love Smart Boards" is wonderful. I recommend him to everyone who has a SmartBoard. I'm waiting for our Tech Meister to send off the paperwork so that I can also enroll in the Teacher Online Training sessions.

About Me:
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!

Hi Joan,
Thanks! I am thoroughly enjoying my SB AND Everyday Math. I was lucky enough to find some kind souls who sent me files for the lessons. How have you used your SB with EDM?
