Everyone Makes Mistakes...So Dry Erase!

Help me give my students dry erase pens for individual boards; pencils for everyday use; and laminating sheets for saving projects for displaying purposes!

My Project

In our classroom, we do a lot of practice problems on our dry erase boards and we go through a lot of pens (7 different classes). It is one thing that our classes love to do is practice problems -- we call them our "jolly rancher" problems! We also have a big dry erase board in the back of the room for motivational quotes and positive affirmations!

We also need pencils.

It is a requirement to do math work with pencil, not pen! My students know there are no pens in class unless you are taking down notes! Homework and tests are in pencil only!

We all make mistakes so dry erase (or pencil)!

Finally, I requested lamination sheets because I use my laminator for everything, from multiplication charts for my IEP students to math bookmarks to project rubric/analysis sheets. I not only use it for math class but other classes and activities that I do around our school!
