I want to thank all those who kindly responded to my request for
favorite library activities and web sites using the Smartboard in the
library.
Bonnie F. Morris, Librarian
Hillel Academy
Pittsburgh, PA 15217
I will have to send the responses in several sections, this being
section 1.
1.
I LOVE it. There are many websites with fun interactive games. One
of my favorites is http://www.e-learningforkids.org/courses.html. It
has a very nice activity for parts of the book and many math and LA
activities. Also, it is so easy to create activities. I have my
students sort out pictures of things they would find in a fairytale
and things they wouldn’t. You can do story sequencing, labeling parts
of the book or parts of your library.

Even though it seems like you have to pay for some things at this
site, there are free Christmas things being offered now.

This is the one I've been using the most this year. Go to the "fun
blaster arcade" and also search around for the game called "Lightning
Librarian"!
