My students could really use some white boards. We have old, stained and warn out boards currently. They should not feel like they are having old hand-me-downs. It should be a fun part of the day and getting something fresh and new is great for that. They will love doing assessments, fluency, and games on these! As a part of our daily routine the students use white boards for warm-ups as well as some of their end of lesson assessments. This is a fun and different approach instead of the traditional paper/pencil they are used to. Any way to get them more engaged is a plus in my eyes! They also need cubbies so they can become organized, self-sufficient, and mature. If a student is organized, they will be set up to win! Helping students grow into responsible kids is important to me. If I can get them to turn in assignments, grab their graded assignments, and slowly work towards maturity, I will be so pleased!
