You can also use the grouping feature to group graphics with additional images and text. For example, group a pull tab with
a hint to a puzzle. Then, move the pull tab to the edge of the Notebook page so that the text is hidden until you are ready to
reveal it.
The Lesson Activity Toolkit provides all items in five colors, enabling you to coordinate with other objects on your Notebook
page.

The Help folder contains a link to the Lesson Activity Toolkit webpage, www.education.smarttech.com/slat, where you can

Pages
Ready-made pages make it easy for you to add structure and style to your lessons. You

bars containing notes – in the Pages folder. To change the text on these pages, just

Lesson notes, useful tools for documenting learning objectives and lesson instructions. To
create a professional looking lesson, consider selecting a colored template and using
matching buttons and graphics from the Graphics folder.
Pages are available in both Adobe Flash and Notebook page format. Adobe Flash pages are identified with a symbol,
and Notebook pages are identified with a folded down top-right corner .
