My students need dry erase boards and erasers for interactive learning!

My Students

I have a very special group of students. My students come from disadvantaged homes and communities, yet, they still show up to school ready to learn. Even when the odds seem to be against them, they continue to work hard.

Our school serves students in grades Pre-K through 5th and many come from families who cannot afford basic school supplies.

First grade is a crucial point in a child's life, where they learn basic skills in order to be successful throughout life. They are hard workers and deserve the best. My students are destined for greatness!

My Project

Ready, Set, Boards Up! My students need dry erase boards for more efficient learning. These boards will allow students to practice math skills and will also be used to check for understanding. Of course pencil and paper is great for learning, but who doesn't love a dry erase board?

Dry erase boards are a fun way to capture student's attention while learning.

Not only can these boards be used in whole group instruction, but can be used in small groups, stations, and even one-on-one learning. I have attempted to make my own boards by laminating paper (which are not very sturdy) and cutting eucatile (which is extremely hard to clean). The donation of these boards will be perfect for the classroom and very much appreciated.
