ACTIVstudio Bag o' Tricks

Thursday - 8:15-9:15
Salon 7

Containers - 
The use of shapes and objects to show an answer as right or wrong.
We need to do more with these.  I will try to get this into one of our Thursday ACTIVtraining sessions.

Game-boards - 
Available in the resource library and on Promethean Planet. They can be customized for all subjects areas.  Tic-tac-toe can be used for math... place problems on the game-board and when a child get the problem correct they claim the box for an "X" or an "O".

Resource packs - 
On Promethean Planet you can download specific resource packs for subject areas and activities.  These packs can be added to your resource library very easily by using your dashboard.

Interactive Website -

New site to check out - www.sheppardsoftware.com 

Tutorial CD - 
They have given us a tutorial CD with tips and tricks (including directions) I will download this to our network when I return to school

This session was full of useful information!
