Howdy ya’ll! I have a cool new toy to show you tonight! And that means it’s a new kindergarten smorgasboard how to video!
Ya know when I left my old classroom I had to leave my Smart Board behind. SAD DAY! My new classroom doesn’t have a Smart Board. Well, that just didn’t work for me! So I set out to figure out how to get myself a Smart Board. Since I didn’t have $1,000 for a new board, I found a cheaper solution. How about 99 cents?! Yeah. 99 cents (if you have an iPad!)!
Here’s what you need to do.
Download the Splashtop app onto your iPad. I purchased the app on sale recently for 99 cents. It is originally priced at $20 which is still a steal for a Smart Board!

I use this in the computer lab cuz I don't have a Smartboard either. It's very sad… Glad you found a solution. Can you tell me what the add-on is for the Splashtop app?
Greg,
Congrats on making it through that 8 hour day. How do you make one of those TpT slideshows you have running on the right side of your blog? That looks so great!
Awesome idea! We also don't have SmartBoards… Sad! I'm going to try this ap out when I get an iPad (someday).
A teacher buddy of mine found this method for making an “at home” SmartBoard! I used it last year and it's great!

Looking forward to reading more from Kindergarten Smorgasbord 🙂

I am dealing with an even more backward situation in my classroom, want to try this idea, but don't understand how the projector needs to interact with the ipad and laptop, what kind of projector do you have?
I love this!!! Here's my problem…when we built a new school, our admin decided to purchase 52 in. TVs instead of projectors for our room. They're just so much smaller and so hard to see! Is that your own personal ipad? If so, do you worry about the kids accidentally breaking something?

The add on is Splashtop Whiteboard!
It's a widget from the TPT website!
The projector isn't interacting. It just projects. The iPad and laptop interact over the wireless network!

Thank you!
I went to the National Science Teachers Convention in San Francisco a few years ago and there was a seminar on how to make an interactive whiteboard with a Wii remote, an infrared pen, your computer and a projector. It was amazing, but your solution is probably easier!
