Challenge: SMART Notebook


I created a SMART Notebook page for use in Kindergarten reading intervention groups. This page reinforces letter/sound correspondence and helps students practice hearing first sounds in words. I created this page because many of the students in my groups struggle with these skills and often need them presented more than most which can exhaust what the curriculum has to offer. As a result I often need to create more activities for my students. I will create more activities that align with the scope and sequence of the curriculum I use.

I was surprised at hose easy and simple it was to create a basic page with very little experience with the app. It was easy to see using this with my small groups.

Using the activity builder was challenging. The search function seemed to have a strange layout and the activity builder didn't work right away. Although operator error may account for this.

I enjoyed the process of planning a simple idea in my head and seeing it come together rather quickly. It was a gratifying process. :)

I have plans to create pages for each letter as it is introduced in the curriculum so that I can extend all lessons. I would also like to think of more pages to go with each letter, more activities to create.
