How do you know if students understand what you are talking about? I teach Science in grades 7 & 8 in a HIGH need community where funds are VERY limited.

Most every person knows that to check for understanding you do worksheets and quizzes correct. Time is limited and grading papers for 120 students can take a while. Students need immediate feedback! They need to know then if their answer is correct, because otherwise they will put the incorrect answer back in their minds making it harder to correct when the papers are passed back.

I need simple small dry erase boards, markers and eraser so that each student can write their answer to a question or problem down. I can easily see every student's response making them accountable for participating and give feedback RIGHT THEN!!

Your help with make sure that my students increase their learning, communication, and questioning skills as well as possibly improving test scores!
