October Promethean Calendar

It's done! It's done! It's done!  My October Calendar for the Promethean Board is done!  I know my kids are going to be super excited about the new songs, pages, and features!  For something that appears pretty simple, these things are very time intensive to create!  (If you are a perfectionist like me and have a board, you know what I mean - BUT they are definitely worth it!)  I don't know if it's just me, but that software is rather glitchy!  It never fails that as I go to click "save" the program freezes up and needs to be restarted... Ahhhh!   Despite my personal issues with the software I can't even begin to tell you how much I LOVE my Promethean Board.  I use it ALL the time and the kids are soooo engaged!  It has definitely changed the way I teach!  Everyone can FINALLY see, and it's so interactive the kids are always involved, and  "sharing the Pen" has additional meaning now - everyone gets a turn to do something - even when it is not a writing lesson! Check out my latest creation for yourself!

Promethean calendar

Mid way through the school year last year, I was lucky enough to get a Promethean Board (like a smart board) for my classroom.  I was (and still am) sooo excited to get one and all the cool things you can do on it!  Little did I realize how much work goes into creating quality, interactive flip-charts!  Soo.... I did what I could last year (which was really the basics - plus I had a lot of technical problems that needed fixing) with the plan to create a lot more over the summer.  Well, we go back to school in about a week and a half and I have created one, yes only one, new flip-chart- my September calendar.  (check it out below!) While I am really excited about it, I feel like I should have created at least 10 others along with it!  Maybe I will make that (and about 50 other things) my goal for the year.  Since my calendar routine builds and new things are added each month, this is one that I will definitely have to stay on top of!  I still can't believe it is almost time to go back!
