Interactive Whiteboard!

Interactive Whiteboard!

Well this was very interesting to learn about!! There is so much you can do!

Here are some of the benefits to teaching using the interactive whiteboard: 

First of all it's all in the name.... It is Interactive! 

Children can come up, out of their seats and physically engage with the teaching. They can present their answers in various ways using the resources provided on the whiteboard. This then helps with all the different ways children learn; auditory learners, kin esthetic learners and visual learners are all involved as a whole class!

It's not just excellent for children's learning, it also helps the teacher - the teacher can save previous lessons and switch between them, so there isn't any time wasted sorting through previous paper work!

Another good aspect to it is for the Child in your class who is learning English as an additional language - you can provide parts of the lesson in their home language, how great is that to not make them feel left out! 

So I can not find a fault with this teaching tool and I hope I have made you see just some of the benefits to it!
