2.  Websites:
  • http://www.easilearn.com/ - Has additional interactives that can be download. There is no cost for some, however some are paid.
  • http://www.myeasiteach.com/ - Interactives that have been created by teachers around the globe.  You must create a user name to see the lessons that have been created.  Free.
3.  Moodle Resources - Last year as part of the UDL Training.  Two teachers from every builidng worked with another teacher from their building to create interactive lessons using the Easiteach Next Generation Software.  Those lessons were for 4th and 5th grade only. They can be found in the K-8 Math and Science section of moodle.  Both 4th and 5th grade science folders have a folder called Easiteach Lessons.

4.  Interactive Books: You can also use books like the one below from Scholastic called "Writing Lesson for the Interactive Whiteboard."  You have to be careful though...not all books like this will work for our system.  If it say "SMART" then it will more than likely only work if you have a SMART board.
