Interactive Whiteboard supporting literacy

Today I used the interactive whiteboard to support literacy with a group of 5 year 1 children. The programme we used was letters and sounds which I accessed via the internet. They played a yes/no silly question game, they really enjoyed it this was a fun way of reading for understanding. Much more fun than a reading from a work sheet or book and for the children who have difficulty with handwriting they could easily answer by clicking on the right answer!
