<br>
If your school is going to get a SMART board then you could download a copy=
 of
the SMARTBoard software from:<br>
<br>
<a href=3D"http://www.smarttech.com/">http://www.smarttech.com/</a><br>
<br>
<a href=3D"http://www.smarttech.com/support/software/index.asp">http://www.s=
marttech.com/support/software/index.asp</a><br>
<br>
It will still work without the SMART board and that way when you get the boa=
rd
you will not have to recreate the lesson.<br>
<br>
If you not getting a SMART board then you may still be able to get a copy of
the software for the type of board you are getting from the web.<br>
<br>
Good luck and have fun with the board when it comes.<br>
<br>
just make sure that if it's going to be mounted on a wall somewhere that you
are able to reach the top right corner of the board otherwise you will have
difficulty closing programs.<br>
<br>
(I had to lower my board after it was installed because of this)<br>
<br>
PS do you realy want the who world to know your home phone number?!?<br>
Would you give it to your students?<br>

Hi All<br>
<br>
I'm hoping a clever person out there can help me.<br>
<br>
I want to create a way to carefully reveal an image in MS PowerPoint. In<br>
the same way that you can reveal an image on an Interactive Whiteboard.<br>
<br>
For this unit I am working in a classroom that doesn't yet have it's IWB<br>
(it's coming next week) but we want to get started.<br>
<br>
My plan is to have powerful images of close ups of minibeasts (one image<br>
per slide) and I want to reveal each image little by little so that the<br>
kids can talk and wonder about them before seeing them in their<br>
totality.<br>
<br>
Is the best way to have shapes layered over the top of the images and<br>
animate them to exit? Or is there a better way?<br>
<br>
Thanks Anne<br>
