Help me give my students 12 dry-erase boards for displaying data, sharing ideas, brainstorming, and collaborative writing activities.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lopez's classroom raised $187
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students are super inquisitive and hardworking! They are 9th graders taking Biology. My school is located in a high-poverty, high-risk area of Southern California. Our student population is about 96% Hispanic/Latino and over 80% participate in the free or reduced-price lunch program. Despite the economic challenges that many of my students face, they are eager to learn and persevere. For many of them, it is their dream to graduate from high school and be the first in their family to attend college.
My Project
My students get excited about using dry erase boards because they can use colorful markers and quickly erase mistakes without a trace. Dry erase boards and markers are just more fun than pencils and paper. Dry erase boards will allow my students to share their ideas, display data, organize CERs, collaborate with their peers, and be colorful. My students care about the environment and they are painfully aware of the amount of paper we use in class. We have made a commitment to cut back our paper and poster-paper use. The dry erase boards will allow us to continue our collaborative work in a tree-friendly way.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
