Case study

Teacher Coryn Bendelow takes a look at 100 SMART board Lessons Year R for us.

The innovative nature of the resource

The book and CD-ROM are highly innovative and I have not seen another resource like this for young children. As a Reception teacher I use my Smartboard all the time but have had to make most of my resources myself! The activities on the CD-ROM are brilliant. They are very well presented, easy to use, well thought out very well ordered, colourful and attractive.

The impact on learning and the work of the teacher in the classroom, to what extent and in which areas and how the resource supports or enhances the everyday life or work of teachers, pupils or school

The resource has had a great impact on children’s learning. My class have used Literacy sections, such as ‘circle game’ and ‘make a word’ to support our synthetic phonics programme. In PRSN we have used ‘making patterns’ ‘coins’ and ‘ordering numbers’ to provide a stimulus and a practice and assessment tool for covering these maths topics. Lesson 4 ‘estimating’ was extremely successful giving me quick access to visual stimulus and making the session truly ‘interactive’. The notebook pages have enabled children to use the whiteboard as another tool to practise and consolidate skills learned. The resource has also had a great impact on my teaching. The book is extremely well produced. It is in line with the most current thinking on teaching and learning in the Foundation Stage and I have been able to use the book and CD-ROM when planning and as an assessment for learning tool.

Cost effectiveness in terms of educational aims and results – not just price

I feel that this resource is extremely cost effective. The CD-ROM in particular provides so many brilliant notebook pages. Although it is possible as a teacher to make up your own notebook pages it is extremely time consuming. It can take literally hours to make two or three pages. Therefore in terms of teacher’s time the resource is very cost effective. The book is very effective in helping teachers and children to reach their goals and educational aims. Thank you for letting me review this resource- it is brilliant!
