This library consists of about 3000 images which we hope will be useful in the teaching of basic vocabulary in a variety of languages. The characters and objects depicted are as culturally neutral as we could make them.
This is not a huge resource of graphics; its purpose is to provide a set of those graphics most basic and useful for low-level language-teaching, and at the same time, to make them as easily searchable as possible.

The case studies form the beginning of a resource to explore the ways in which interactive

A SmartBoard mini-movie is a simple (most involve only a click of the mouse), interactive animation that teachers can download and add to their galleries. From there, the movies can be inserted into their SMART Notebook presentations. Each mini-movie is a dynamic Flash file, similar to the same files that are already included in SMART Notebook's resources.
At DreamBox we're dedicated to bringing math to life for all students. So we've created these free Teacher Tools - virtual manipulatives that can be used in large- or small-group instructional settings. You can use these math tools - tenframes, mathracks, and other innovative tools - with your interactive white board or projector to make math lessons clear for your whole class, or even on your computer for smaller groups.
Power your lessons with the creative potential of the Lesson Activity Toolkit. Discover new ways to build lessons that energize your classroom with these helpful tips, video tutorials and best practices.
