Tips for the Promethean

The Magic Hat is an easy tool to use, and a great way to hide items behind a picture on your flipchart.  This feature is a nice way to review vocabulary.

Here’s what to do:

  • Move an image or shape onto a clean flipchart page

  • Right click on the image, click reorder, click bring to front

  • Lock the picture by right clicking, and click locked (Note:  do not have anything on top or behind the pic)

  • Create your vocabulary by using the text feature to write the words somewhere on the blank part of the page

  • Pull the words behind the locked picture

  • When you mouse over the picture, a plus sign will appear where a word is


Try this and let me know how it goes!  Take a screen shot and upload it with your comment.
