interactive whiteboard resources currently available for teachers however to be able to access this site registration a necessity. An interactive whiteboard tool

you may wish to use with your students is the story map  tool , allowing students to write in their ideas on the board creating a title, setting, characters and an

orientation, complication and resolution. Students can interact with one another by writing their ideas on the white board in the certain sections, providing them

with the main ideas for their retell to create a digital story.





The story map tool will help children with their writing as well as help their ability to create a story by using key ideas. This interactive whiteboard tool may be

used as well after the story is read, where children can interact when you ask what the setting, characters, orientation, complication and resolution was of "The
