Tennis balls on the SMART Board?….yes!

Sometimes I have students who cannot use the pens well because their fine motor skills are not developed. The solution is to pick up a pen from the pen tray and hand them a tennis ball. Using that you will find that they can write smoothly and the lines drawn will be no thicker than the pen lines.

Happy Learning!

great idea! My students need such adaptations.

Adifferent question: when do you STOP using a function how do you turn it off? Penn is easy – just put it down. How about creating shapes, lines, etc. How do you turn those buttons off?
