Gynzy: Interactive Whiteboard w/ the teacher at the center!
It has so many great activities to use with any interactive whiteboard. It is so user-friendly, and kid-friendly. I looked at a lot of the tools, and they have some really neat ones to choose from. I love the birthday cake - you choose your cake style, add name and age, add decorations, and then it will play happy birthday and you can click a button to blow out the candles. So cute! There are a variety of timers and games - hangman, bingo, match. You can personalize the games with your own words or use computer selected ones. You can add youtube videos and web images. There are a ton of math activities - more of these than anything else. I love the sorting activities - you can choose different objects from a theme and select the number and the kids can sort them. There are different types of lined notebook writing paper. There is an option that allows you to use your webcam and you have an "elmo" or document camera.
