Building Literacy Through Phonics and Decoding

Help me give my students this dry erase table! We do daily drills with whiteboards and students will love using the table. It will also save valuable time during our reading groups!

My Project

I am a reading interventionist in a low income school. Currently over 90% of students are below poverty. I see a large number of students in small groups. We do daily drills that require whiteboards. These drills provide repetition and fluency is decoding. We use so much time getting out and putting away whiteboards. Being able to use the table would be a huge time saver. It would also be used bye to model sentences, summaries, and other writing we do together in groups. I have a very small room with no whiteboard to model on.
