The Inspire Interactive Panel is an adjustable, interactive multi-touch display pre-installed with Kaplan exclusive activities and free lesson creating software. Available in two sizes and with a mobile cart or wall mounting capabilities, the Inspire Interactive Panel provides hands-on learning experiences focused on math, literacy, science, and artistic concepts. With 10 educational lessons to choose from, children join in collaborative play that promotes the development of early literacy and math skills, along with motor skill development. These activities include lessons about animals, insects, community members, music, the science of color mixing, and more. The Inspire Interactive Panel provides hours of entertainment to help children of all capabilities learn in fun and engaging ways.
The 43" panel and cart are perfect for smaller classrooms. The motorized stand can lift, lower, and rotate a full 90 degrees with the push of a button. The curved design of the cart legs allows multiple children, and those requiring mobility devices, to engage in collaborative play at one time. The cart legs also include wheels which makes it easy to maneuver the 43" panel from one location to another.
Our 55" panel and cart are perfect for your mid-sized classroom. The motorized stand can lift, lower, and rotate a full 90 degrees with the push of a button. The cart also include wheels which makes it easy to maneuver the 55" panel from one location to another.
The 65" panel is perfect for larger classrooms. With this version of Inspire, you can choose between two different stands, a mobile cart with wheels, or an adjustable wall mount. At this time, the Inspire 65" does not have the ability to rotate into table top mode. However, you can lift and lower the display to engage children in collaborative play during circle time and classroom centers.
The Inspire Interactive Panel also includes Kaplan Exclusive software.
Rather than the linear play typical to early childhood software, Shine2 is designed to support the natural curiosity and creativity of children. Children can engage in circle time and collaborative play activities that teach literacy, math, social studies, science, and other educational concepts. Each activity is designed with Head Start Objectives and Kindergarten Common Core standards in mind.
Get the most out of your Inspire with Prowise Presenter and ProConnect. This software allows you to create lesson plans and additional classroom activities for your classroom. This software also includes digital whiteboard tools, lesson plans created by the Prowise community, and educational videos to supplement your classroom discussions.

The Inspire Interactive Panel is programmed with our exclusive software, Explorations. This software introduces children to 10 entertaining activities and a special friend, Penelope Porcupine. Each activity provides children with engaging opportunities to explore their natural curiosities, express their creativity, and improve overall development.
During this activity, children will use an open-ended canvas to explore their creativity and the science of color mixing while they create colorful masterpieces.
With Literacy Bubbles, children will learn letter recognition, letter sounds, and other early literacy concepts during this activity. While playing, children will add letters and objects into bubbles, doing their best to sort them appropriately.
This activity helps children learn early mathematical concepts as they create, join, and separate bubbles. They can also place icons inside of their bubbles to build their counting, classifying, sorting, grouping, adding, subtracting, and dividing skills.
Children can pretend they are archaeologists with this fun scientific exploration activity. They can use their finger to paint over animal images to reveal their inner anatomy and X-ray, or they can paint over an X-ray to uncover the animal\'s exterior.
Children can become entomologists as they discover what the inside of an insect looks like. They can choose different insect photographs to uncover their inner anatomy and X-rays.
This activity engages students by helping them learn about insects and their defining features. Children can create their own insects by combing insect parts such as thoraxes, wings, abdomens, and legs.
You can create fun puzzles from any picture or short video that children can put together. This activity would be great for classroom scavenger hunts, "About Me" lessons, family engagement, and can extend what children are learning into a fun-filled group activity.
Sequence Strings combines music and math to keep children engaged as they learn about numbers and sequencing. As the numbers go higher, so do the notes being played on the strings.
Playing alone or with a friend, children practice math fluency by creating math sentences in Free Play, Longest Answer, and Fastest Answer modes. This activity is perfect for learning early math concepts, and for more advanced learners.
Preloaded with four content packs, children can sort between animals, colors, emotions, and shapes as they add icons to bubbles on the screen.
