Math in middle school can be tricky - it's when the alphabet starts marching in among the numbers and all of a sudden answers are no longer immediately obvious. To help students structure their thoughts, they need to learn to carefully document their train of thought line by line, or to create graphs and charts to support their conclusions. For most students, this is not a fun activity - unless they get to use white boards. Allowing students to show their work on dry erase boards not only makes the work more enjoyable for them, it also allows me to quickly check for understanding and completion. As we go into into a new school year where we might have students in front of us or only see them only virtually, providing each of my 7th grade students their own, personal whiteboard will greatly enhance their learning without compromising their safety. I have requested 240 white boards measuring 9" x 11". This number is sufficient for the entire 7th grade class and I propose that each student will receive a set at the beginning of the school year along with their textbooks and that the boards should be returned at the end of the school year to be re-issued the following school year. Personal whiteboards can be used in class or from home - in both cases students can easily and quickly show their work to their teachers or to each other without having to deal with keyboard or formatting issues that arise when typing an answer into a chat window or form is not possible. They not need to be disinfected at the end of each class period and can be use
