Empowering Math Learning with Magnetic Grid Whiteboards

Help me give my students magnetic grid whiteboards to enhance Math learning and foster academic and social-emotional growth.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Rista's classroom raised $748

This project is fully funded

My Project

This project aims to enhance math learning through the Building Thinking Classroom approach using magnetic grid whiteboards. By integrating these innovative tools, students will collaborate effectively, engage in problem-solving, and build essential math skills.

The magnetic grids will facilitate random grouping, promoting diverse partnerships and encouraging students to share ideas and strategies.

This method not only enhances academic understanding but also fosters social and emotional growth, as students learn to communicate, support each other, and build a sense of community in the classroom.

With your support, we can create an interactive and inclusive learning environment where all students feel valued and empowered, leading to improved confidence and success in mathematics. Join us in transforming our classroom experience!
