Interactive Whiteboard Files

Here are some notebook files I have made to use with Smartboard interactive whiteboards.

Most of them are blank templates, rather than lessons I have used, although there are a couple of lesson files too. There is a real mix of things from games to organisers – take a look and download as many as you want. Theyn range from very basic to not so basic.

Once you have downloaded them open them as usual and then save as a gallery item. this will mean you keep a blank copy of all of the templates to use whenever you want. If you use the Notebook software at home and at school you will need to make sure you save them in both places (does that make sense? – I know what I mean, but I don’t know if anyone else will!). Please leave me any comments or suggestions.
