Are you looking for a way to help students organize their thoughts and communicate ideas? Check out Kidpiration and Inspiration software. All elementary schools have site licenses for Kidspiration and all middle/high schools for Inspiration. Both of these are excellent for meeting the diverse needs of your students by providing support for various learning styles. Students can express their thoughts in pictures and/or words. Great for your English language learners! These also work well with those new SMARTBoards so you can get your students up and moving!
Using Inspiration, students can create diagrams, outlines, and mind maps using words and/or pictures. This is wonderful for brainstorming ideas, organizing thoughts and communicating ideas.
Kidspiration is also great for mind mapping and sorting activities.
Many activities are already available in the templates under each subject area. Be sure to look in the SOLResources folder or the TEACH Clearinghouse (link is only available on division computers) for activities created by Harrisonburg teachers. Examples and lesson plans are also available at
