Smartboard Activities & Worksheets

Smartboard Presentations

Incorporating Smartboard activities into the classroom allows for a more interactive and visually responsive way to get students involved in their own learning.

These Smartboard presentations take care to include multiple ways in which a student can interact with the subject, including video and audio clips, and multiple ways in which they can test their knowledge, including group discussions, quizzes and individual activities. Additional worksheets that accompany some presentations allow for students to work on activities on their desks during the presentations.


Please feel free to change the activities, quizzes, and additional media to suit your purpose. However, we ask that credit be given to Project I'm READY if it is being used outside of the classroom.

Coming soon: YouTube instructional videos on how best to adjust the Smartboard presentations, and how to create fun presentations of your own.
