=**My Created SMARTboard Lessons**=
 * -I teach grades 6 & 7 therefore the lessons are only designed for those classes. The ideas can be used for any grade and subject area, but the specific material is only relevant to specific grades.**

=**Links**=
 * I use [|SMART exchange] to get templates for the lessons, then adapt them to my classes' specific needs. It is important to understand multi-ink layers in order to adapt and fully understand how to create similar SMART lessons.**

Teaching the Carbon Cycle Credit goes to
 * A very interactive board-game that helps students understand the complexity of the carbon cycle. I cannot take credit for the activity but I adapted the language to fit my students. The prep work is worth it because the students seem to really catch on to a complex idea.**

Reviewing Ecosystems
 * A jeopardy game that reviews producers, consumers, carnivores, herbivores, omnivores, food chains, food webs, food pyramids, biotic & abiotic factors, and ecosystems in general.**

Reviewing Outcomes for Earth Science: Earth's Crust and Resources
 * A kooshball activity that includes information on each Saskatchewan curriculum outcome. Great to use as a review at the end of a unit, or at the start of a unit to see student pre-requisite knowledge. Each page includes a page number from the Pearson Science 7 textbook for students to look up extra information about the topic. The lesson takes roughly 1-1.5 hours. I recommend using 2 socks rolled up as a ball to throw at the SMARTboard if you do not have a kooshball.**

**Practical and Applied Arts (PAA), Outdoor Education**

 * Interactive Jeopardy lesson that includes wilderness first-aid and other important survival information.**
