Hi Amanda,
Here I was ready to list a plethora of great websites I've been using for the past 4 years and I see someone else already did..Great Job
The listed websites are amongst the best for great ideas, although I will say, you will still spend a lot of time searching for the best, but good luck with it and have fun. Your kids sure will :)

I would recommend looking at UK websites before anything from the US as they are about 8-9 years ahead of them in using IWBs in their schools.

A fantastic site is www.communication4all.co.uk is a really useful site with ready made and easily downloadable resources. UK is fantastic!

Just found this great free site for IWB.....

Hi if you're a teacher in NSW with ID and password access to DET portal, you can get into TaLE - Teaching and Learning Exchange. It has lots of resources and you can download a catalogue from the Learning Federation to use in relation to the TaLE site. I think you can also log in as a parent too.
Hope this helps!

I love this website for free games...

http://www.topmarks.co.uk/Interactive.aspx

its a UK site, but offers a great range of activities. My students love it!

Also the smart kiddies website that someone else mentioned is excellent!

There are sooooooooooooo many activities from around the world at the smart website

http://education.smarttech.com/ste/en-us/Ed+Resource/Lesson+activities/Notebook+activities/

I have found these a great inspiration and so have my children

Have a look at www.ictgames.com - they have some great literacy and numeracy games for younger children.

Don't you just love your smartboard. I joined SMARTKIDDIES (free for teachers) and my kids (year 1) love the activities. My husband also uses it for his Year 5.

Teacherresourcesgalore.com have some free notebook pages as well, I love the daily noticeboards. I modified them to suit my class.

My kids remind me to do this daily and insist on having me write down who has had a turn so no-one misses out. They also have some other pages as well.

If you are in NSW, curric support have some excellent resources to support COGs and all KLA's.

Copacabana PS has GET SMART, 1000's of IWB pages.

Have fun.

A few websites my grade ones use are:

www.beenleigss.eq.edu.au (good on line stories)

Google: copacabana public school- then go to Get Smart.

www.primaryresources.co.uk

Recently started using this site after a colleague at school put me onto it. There are heaps of games & activities to use in all curriculum areas. My Receptions found it quite easy to navigate. The address is :

http://tes.iboard.co.uk/player/index.htm

Top Marks in the Uk has some great IWB resources especially for maths. Just google Top Marks UK and you should be able to find it.

promethean planet has great flipcharts for all grades. you do have to have a membership. what grade do you teach I teach kinder.

I have created a wiki where I post resources for our Early Childhood teachers to use on their SMART Boards. Most of these activities are available to use on any IWB, our district is a SMART district, so that is how I labelled the wiki. Maybe this will help. :)

www.smartboardforecteachers.wikispaces.com

It is a wiki, so anyone can add to it! :)
