Solving Problems & Going Green In Chemistry!

My students need 30 mini-whiteboards, markers, and whiteboard cleaner.

  • $392 goal

This project expired on April 8, 2010.

I teach Chemistry to juniors and seniors at a wonderful, diverse, low-income, high-achieving charter high school in southern California.

In practicing applied math problems, students run through enormous amounts of paper. They cannot correct mistakes as they go on paper, so they have to begin all over again. I have currently have 5 beat-up mini-whiteboards that students compete to be able to use.

My students need the opportunity to practice math problems in a manner that both does not waste resources and is fun. Whiteboards, markers, and whiteboard cleaner will allow for this.

Please help to make my classroom simultaneously more fun and "greener" for my students. They are very, very deserving.
