A Whiteboard for Learning

Help me give my students a magnetic mobile dry erase board for daily lessons.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Bains's classroom raised $167

My Project

My kindergarteners love to come to school. They look forward to the day's activities, and they love to learn. I am requesting a mobile magnetic dry erase board for daily lessons. I will be able to use the dry erase board for all subject areas and my students will love using it. My students will be able to use magnetic letters and counters which are important for phonics and number sense. I will also be able to display picture directions for hands-on experiences which are wonderful for young learners.

Engaging, hands-on lessons are critical for kindergarteners.

I would like to motivate my students in learning by using engaging materials. My students will be able to experiment and discover. Hands-on experiences and experiments lead to gains in problem solving, cognitive ability, critical thinking, and verbal skills. The mobile dry erase board will engage 100% of my students. I am also requesting a book from one of our favorite authors. Thank you for your support!
