Empowering Students with Wipebooks for Learning in a Thinking Classroom
Help me give my students create an interactive “Thinking Classroom” with Wipebooks! These reusable, dry-erase notebooks will encourage collaboration, creativity, and risk-taking, allowing students to experiment and refine ideas without wasting paper.

My Project
Imagine a classroom where students eagerly engage in problem-solving, freely sharing their ideas, and actively building on each other's thinking. This is the vision I have for my students, and I believe a WipeBook flipchart will help make it a reality. I am requesting a set of reusable Wipebooks to transform our classroom into a space that encourages collaboration, exploration, and creative problem-solving.
In a "Thinking Classroom," students work on challenging problems at vertical non-permanent surfaces, which allows them to quickly sketch, revise, and improve their ideas.
Wipebooks offer the perfect blend of durability and flexibility: students can use these dry-erase notebooks for group activities, brainstorming sessions, and individual reflections. Unlike traditional notebooks, Wipebooks can be wiped clean and reused, reducing paper waste and providing endless opportunities for iterative learning.
With Wipebooks, I will be able to foster a learning environment where mistakes are welcomed and thinking is made visible. Students can experiment, test ideas, and engage in meaningful discussions without the pressure of permanent marks on paper. This set of Wipebooks will empower my students to collaborate, take intellectual risks, and build confidence in their problem-solving skills.
Your donation will help provide these valuable tools that not only enhance learning but also promote sustainable practices in the classroom. Thank you for helping me inspire my students to become critical thinkers and enthusiastic learners!
