SMARTboard Resources for the Arts

  

This page has been created as a resource to anyone who is currently using a SMARTboard in their classroom.

Many of you know the wonder and fascination students have with technology.  This page is to get you started with links to websites out there that you could use with your interactive SMARTboard for visual art and other arts related content.  

These sites I have listed are some of the best for visual art instruction with a SMARTboard, but there are many more you can use if you click the "MY LINKS" tab at left.

If you have a special site you would like to feature, please send a link and I will post it for you.

ksulliva@lex5.k12.sc.us,

Check back soon for a link to the District Five website which will provide you with links to lessons, teachers across the United States who currently use their SMARTboard as part of the daily instruction in their arts classroom and links to new and exciting sites.
