SMART Notebook Express

Several of the interactive lessons that we use in class are created using SMART Notebook Software.  We are able to view these files at school because all of the laptops that we use have the software installed.  To access these lessons at home, follow the steps listed below.  As always, please let me know if you have any trouble.

1) Click on the lesson.  The file will open in either box.net or windows live.

2)  Click on download. When the pop-up menu appears, choose to save the file.  (Be sure you remember where you save the file.)

3)  Go to http://express.smarttech.com/#.  Select Open an existing Notebook file.  Find the file that you saved and click Open.

How to Access Infinite Campus

1)  Go to the OPS Homepage.

2)  Click on the link for Infinite Campus Parent Portal.

3)  For the username, enter the student number that you were given in class.  The number is also located in the top right-hand corner of your class schedule.

4)  For the password, enter your first initial, your last initial, and then your birthday (two-digit month, two-digit day, two-digit year). For example, the password for Tom Cruise would be tc070362 (because his birthday is July 3, 1962).
