I think you have a great understanding of the technology of smart boards. By using smart boards in this type of lesson, it helps the students to better understand the information. Understanding slope intercepts and graphing is a topic that is better understood visually. This technology allows the lesson to become very visually and hands-on. Reviewing the prerequisites is a great technique to use before teaching the lesson. If students do not know the information required to understand the lesson, then it is impossible for them to learn it. Not knowing the prerequisites will make the students feel frustrated, uninterested and disengaged. This will cause teachers to loose the students attention. By reviewing the prerequisites, students are prepared for the lesson. If I was a student in you class I would feel that I am learning a lot of information in a great method. Not only are the students learning from your lesson but they are also learning by eachother when working in groups. It is said that students all learn best in different methods, and sometimes learn better from one another. You are discover both of these methods in your lesson, by allowing students to work in groups and by using the technology. GOOD JOB!
